Fair Housing, Practice, and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
A salesperson notices a possible compliance problem for the Washington Real Estate Broker Exam involving reasonable modification and seller disclosure and environmental awareness. What should the licensee understand? (Item 135)
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. Distinguish physical changes requested for disability-related use in a way that fits Washington exam practice.
- D. Local custom controls even when a statute, regulation, contract, or disclosure rule applies.
Correct Answer
C. Distinguish physical changes requested for disability-related use in a way that fits Washington exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because reasonable modification requires candidates to distinguish physical changes requested for disability-related use. 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.
