Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
A property manager asks how a rule affects a rental property for the Tennessee Affiliate Broker Exam involving accounting and Tennessee Real Estate Commission. Which response best applies the rule? (Item 7)
Answer choices
- A. The requirement matters only when the buyer obtains institutional financing.
- B. The affiliated licensee may handle the matter independently without broker responsibility.
- C. Properly handle and account for money, documents, and property entrusted to the licensee in a way that fits Tennessee exam practice.
- D. Local custom controls even when a statute, regulation, contract, or disclosure rule applies.
Correct Answer
C. Properly handle and account for money, documents, and property entrusted to the licensee in a way that fits Tennessee exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because accounting requires candidates to properly handle and account for money, documents, and property entrusted to the licensee. 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.
