Contracts, Finance, and Transfer Practice Question
Question
A client asks whether a fact should be disclosed for the Virginia Real Estate Salesperson Exam involving prorations and Virginia Real Estate Board. Which statement is most accurate for exam purposes? (Item 180)
Answer choices
- A. The requirement matters only when the buyer obtains institutional financing.
- B. The affiliated licensee may handle the matter independently without broker responsibility.
- C. Local custom controls even when a statute, regulation, contract, or disclosure rule applies.
- D. Allocate recurring expenses such as taxes, rent, interest, or assessments in a way that fits Virginia exam practice.
Correct Answer
D. Allocate recurring expenses such as taxes, rent, interest, or assessments in a way that fits Virginia exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is D because prorations requires candidates to allocate recurring expenses such as taxes, rent, interest, or assessments. The Virginia 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.
