Contracts, Finance, and Transfer Practice Question
Question
A closing coordinator flags an issue before settlement for the Pennsylvania Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving recording and Pennsylvania Real Estate Commission. Which answer best reduces risk? (Item 15)
Answer choices
- A. The safest practice is to avoid written documentation so fewer questions are raised later.
- B. A licensee may give legal conclusions instead of recommending qualified legal advice when uncertain.
- C. Recognize constructive notice and priority effects of recording in a way that fits Pennsylvania exam practice.
- D. A verbal understanding always replaces a written real estate requirement.
Correct Answer
C. Recognize constructive notice and priority effects of recording in a way that fits Pennsylvania exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because recording requires candidates to recognize constructive notice and priority effects of recording. 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.
