Fair Housing, Practice, and Disclosures Practice Question
Question
A client asks whether a fact should be disclosed for the Washington Real Estate Broker Exam involving blockbusting and agency law pamphlet concepts. Which statement is most accurate for exam purposes? (Item 68)
Answer choices
- A. Escrow or closing staff automatically assume all brokerage agency and disclosure duties.
- B. The client’s preference eliminates the need to disclose known material facts.
- C. The party who complains first automatically receives the remedy requested.
- D. Identify inducing sales or rentals through protected-class fear tactics in a way that fits Washington exam practice.
Correct Answer
D. Identify inducing sales or rentals through protected-class fear tactics in a way that fits Washington exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is D because blockbusting requires candidates to identify inducing sales or rentals through protected-class fear tactics. 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.
