Fair Housing, Practice, and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
A broker is correcting a new licensee’s misunderstanding for the Utah Real Estate Sales Agent Exam involving blockbusting and state forms and disclosure awareness. What should the licensee understand? (Item 36)
Answer choices
- A. A verbal understanding always replaces a written real estate requirement.
- B. The safest practice is to avoid written documentation so fewer questions are raised later.
- C. A licensee may give legal conclusions instead of recommending qualified legal advice when uncertain.
- D. Identify inducing sales or rentals through protected-class fear tactics in a way that fits Utah exam practice.
Correct Answer
D. Identify inducing sales or rentals through protected-class fear tactics in a way that fits Utah exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is D because blockbusting requires candidates to identify inducing sales or rentals through protected-class fear tactics. 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.
