Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
A license applicant is reviewing a practice scenario for the Tennessee Affiliate Broker Exam involving disciplinary grounds and agency and property condition disclosure practice. Which response best applies the rule? (Item 52)
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. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
- D. Recognize fraud, misrepresentation, trust fund violations, and unlicensed activity as discipline risks in a way that fits Tennessee exam practice.
Correct Answer
D. Recognize fraud, misrepresentation, trust fund violations, and unlicensed activity as discipline risks in a way that fits Tennessee exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is D because disciplinary grounds requires candidates to recognize fraud, misrepresentation, trust fund violations, and unlicensed activity as discipline risks. 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.
