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 Utah Division of Real Estate. Which response best applies the rule? (Item 12)
Answer choices
- A. Local custom controls even when a statute, regulation, contract, or disclosure rule applies.
- B. The requirement matters only when the buyer obtains institutional financing.
- C. The affiliated licensee may handle the matter independently without broker responsibility.
- D. Recognize a court order requiring contract performance in appropriate cases in a way that fits Utah exam practice.
Correct Answer
D. Recognize a court order requiring contract performance in appropriate cases in a way that fits Utah exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is D 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.
