Contracts, Finance, and Transfer Practice Question
Question
A seller is preparing to list a home for the South Carolina Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving listing agreement and state disclosure practice. Which statement is the best answer? (Item 39)
Answer choices
- A. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
- B. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.
- C. Identify broker employment terms, compensation, property description, and authorization in a way that fits South Carolina exam practice.
- D. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
Correct Answer
C. Identify broker employment terms, compensation, property description, and authorization in a way that fits South Carolina exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because listing agreement requires candidates to identify broker employment terms, compensation, property description, and authorization. The South Carolina 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.
