Fair Housing, Practice, and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
A supervising broker is reviewing a transaction file for the Ohio Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving state fair housing and state-specific license supervision. What should the licensee understand? (Item 130)
Answer choices
- A. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.
- B. Recognize that state protections may be broader than federal minimums in a way that fits Ohio exam practice.
- C. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
- D. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
Correct Answer
B. Recognize that state protections may be broader than federal minimums in a way that fits Ohio exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is B because state fair housing requires candidates to recognize that state protections may be broader than federal minimums. 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.
