Contracts, Finance, and Transfer Practice Question
Question
A client asks whether a fact should be disclosed for the Tennessee Affiliate Broker Exam involving recording and Tennessee Real Estate Commission. What should the licensee understand? (Item 69)
Answer choices
- A. Recognize constructive notice and priority effects of recording in a way that fits Tennessee exam practice.
- B. Client funds may be mixed with business funds if the broker reconciles the account later.
- C. The issue can be ignored if the parties want to close quickly.
- D. The rule applies only to commercial transactions and never to residential transactions.
Correct Answer
A. Recognize constructive notice and priority effects of recording in a way that fits Tennessee exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is A because recording requires candidates to recognize constructive notice and priority effects of recording. 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.
