Contracts, Finance, and Transfer Practice Question
Question
A buyer asks a licensee for an exam-focused explanation for the Utah Real Estate Sales Agent Exam involving deed types and Utah Division of Real Estate. What should the licensee understand? (Item 68)
Answer choices
- A. The affiliated licensee may handle the matter independently without broker responsibility.
- B. Local custom controls even when a statute, regulation, contract, or disclosure rule applies.
- C. The requirement matters only when the buyer obtains institutional financing.
- D. Distinguish warranty, grant, special warranty, and quitclaim concepts at a high level in a way that fits Utah exam practice.
Correct Answer
D. Distinguish warranty, grant, special warranty, and quitclaim concepts at a high level in a way that fits Utah exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is D because deed types requires candidates to distinguish warranty, grant, special warranty, and quitclaim concepts at a high level. 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.
