Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
A closing coordinator flags an issue before settlement for the Tennessee Affiliate Broker Exam involving agency disclosure and Tennessee Real Estate Commission. Which statement is most accurate for exam purposes? (Item 8)
Answer choices
- A. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.
- 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. Provide agency relationship disclosures when required by state practice in a way that fits Tennessee exam practice.
Correct Answer
D. Provide agency relationship disclosures when required by state practice in a way that fits Tennessee exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is D because agency disclosure requires candidates to provide agency relationship disclosures when required by state practice. The Tennessee 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.
