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 reasonable accommodation and agency law pamphlet concepts. Which answer best reduces risk? (Item 70)
Answer choices
- A. The safest practice is to avoid written documentation so fewer questions are raised later.
- B. Identify rule or policy changes needed for disability access when reasonable in a way that fits Washington exam practice.
- C. A licensee may give legal conclusions instead of recommending qualified legal advice when uncertain.
- D. A verbal understanding always replaces a written real estate requirement.
Correct Answer
B. Identify rule or policy changes needed for disability access when reasonable in a way that fits Washington exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is B because reasonable accommodation requires candidates to identify rule or policy changes needed for disability access when reasonable. 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.
