Contracts, Finance, and Transfer Practice Question
Question
A property manager asks how a rule affects a rental property for the Utah Real Estate Sales Agent Exam involving specific performance and state forms and disclosure awareness. Which response best applies the rule? (Item 102)
Answer choices
- A. The issue can be ignored if the parties want to close quickly.
- B. Recognize a court order requiring contract performance in appropriate cases in a way that fits Utah exam practice.
- C. The rule applies only to commercial transactions and never to residential transactions.
- D. Client funds may be mixed with business funds if the broker reconciles the account later.
Correct Answer
B. Recognize a court order requiring contract performance in appropriate cases in a way that fits Utah exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is B because specific performance requires candidates to recognize a court order requiring contract performance in appropriate cases. 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.
