Fair Housing, Practice, and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
A closing coordinator flags an issue before settlement for the Tennessee Affiliate Broker Exam involving advertising language and agency and property condition disclosure practice. What should the licensee understand? (Item 88)
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. Local custom controls even when a statute, regulation, contract, or disclosure rule applies.
- D. Avoid preferences, limitations, or discriminatory wording in a way that fits Tennessee exam practice.
Correct Answer
D. Avoid preferences, limitations, or discriminatory wording in a way that fits Tennessee exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is D because advertising language requires candidates to avoid preferences, limitations, or discriminatory wording. 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.
