Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
A license applicant is reviewing a practice scenario for the Pennsylvania Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving salesperson affiliation and consumer notice concepts. Which response best applies the rule? (Item 129)
Answer choices
- A. Understand that salespersons or agents generally act through a broker in a way that fits Pennsylvania exam practice.
- B. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
- C. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
- D. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.
Correct Answer
A. Understand that salespersons or agents generally act through a broker in a way that fits Pennsylvania exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is A because salesperson affiliation requires candidates to understand that salespersons or agents generally act through a broker. The Pennsylvania 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.
