Principles, Property, and Land Use Practice Question

Question

A supervising broker is reviewing a transaction file for the Pennsylvania Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving property taxation and Pennsylvania Real Estate Commission. Which answer best reduces risk? (Item 132)

Answer choices

1. A. The rule applies only to commercial transactions and never to residential transactions.
2. B. Client funds may be mixed with business funds if the broker reconciles the account later.
3. C. The issue can be ignored if the parties want to close quickly.
4. D. Recognize taxation as a government power affecting real property in a way that fits Pennsylvania exam practice.

Correct Answer

D. Recognize taxation as a government power affecting real property in a way that fits Pennsylvania exam practice.

Explanation

The correct answer is D because property taxation requires candidates to recognize taxation as a government power affecting real property. 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.
