Fair Housing, Practice, and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
A closing coordinator flags an issue before settlement for the Oregon Real Estate Broker Exam involving risk documentation and broker supervision and disclosure practice. Which answer best reduces risk? (Item 31)
Answer choices
- A. The requirement matters only when the buyer obtains institutional financing.
- B. The affiliated licensee may handle the matter independently without broker responsibility.
- C. Use written records and timely disclosure to reduce transaction disputes in a way that fits Oregon exam practice.
- D. Local custom controls even when a statute, regulation, contract, or disclosure rule applies.
Correct Answer
C. Use written records and timely disclosure to reduce transaction disputes in a way that fits Oregon exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because risk documentation requires candidates to use written records and timely disclosure to reduce transaction disputes. 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.
