Fair Housing, Practice, and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
A broker is correcting a new licensee’s misunderstanding for the Washington Real Estate Broker Exam involving advertising language and seller disclosure and environmental awareness. Which statement is most accurate for exam purposes? (Item 40)
Answer choices
- A. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.
- B. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
- C. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
- D. Avoid preferences, limitations, or discriminatory wording in a way that fits Washington exam practice.
Correct Answer
D. Avoid preferences, limitations, or discriminatory wording in a way that fits Washington exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is D because advertising language requires candidates to avoid preferences, limitations, or discriminatory wording. The Washington 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.
