Principles, Property, and Land Use Practice Question
Question
A supervising broker is reviewing a transaction file for the Ohio Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving variance and state-specific license supervision. What should the licensee understand? (Item 110)
Answer choices
- A. The requirement matters only when the buyer obtains institutional financing.
- B. Recognize relief from zoning rules due to property-specific hardship in a way that fits Ohio exam practice.
- C. The affiliated licensee may handle the matter independently without broker responsibility.
- D. Local custom controls even when a statute, regulation, contract, or disclosure rule applies.
Correct Answer
B. Recognize relief from zoning rules due to property-specific hardship in a way that fits Ohio exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is B because variance requires candidates to recognize relief from zoning rules due to property-specific hardship. 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.
