Agency and License Law Practice Question
Question
A salesperson notices a possible compliance problem for the Utah Real Estate Sales Agent Exam involving salesperson affiliation and sales agent brokerage affiliation. Which answer best reduces risk? (Item 21)
Answer choices
- A. Understand that salespersons or agents generally act through a broker in a way that fits Utah exam practice.
- B. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
- C. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.
- D. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
Correct Answer
A. Understand that salespersons or agents generally act through a broker in a way that fits Utah exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is A because salesperson affiliation requires candidates to understand that salespersons or agents generally act through a broker. The Utah 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.
