Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
A closing coordinator flags an issue before settlement for the Ohio Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving salesperson affiliation and Ohio Division of Real Estate. Which statement is the best answer? (Item 3)
Answer choices
- A. A verbal understanding always replaces a written real estate requirement.
- B. The safest practice is to avoid written documentation so fewer questions are raised later.
- C. Understand that salespersons or agents generally act through a broker in a way that fits Ohio exam practice.
- D. A licensee may give legal conclusions instead of recommending qualified legal advice when uncertain.
Correct Answer
C. Understand that salespersons or agents generally act through a broker in a way that fits Ohio exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because salesperson affiliation requires candidates to understand that salespersons or agents generally act through a broker. The Ohio reference keeps the scenario tied to state licensing practice, while the other options rely on unsafe assumptions about oral custom, escrow, client preference, independent licensee authority, or ignoring written duties.
