Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
A seller is preparing to list a home for the Oregon Real Estate Broker Exam involving dual agency or limited representation and broker supervision and disclosure practice. Which answer best reduces risk? (Item 27)
Answer choices
- A. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
- B. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
- C. Recognize consent and neutrality duties when one brokerage is involved with both sides in a way that fits Oregon exam practice.
- D. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.
Correct Answer
C. Recognize consent and neutrality duties when one brokerage is involved with both sides in a way that fits Oregon exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because dual agency or limited representation requires candidates to recognize consent and neutrality duties when one brokerage is involved with both sides. The Oregon 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.
