Principles, Property, and Land Use Practice Question
Question
A closing coordinator flags an issue before settlement for the Washington Real Estate Broker Exam involving easements and seller disclosure and environmental awareness. Which statement is the best answer? (Item 107)
Answer choices
- A. A verbal understanding always replaces a written real estate requirement.
- B. The safest practice is to avoid written documentation so fewer questions are raised later.
- C. Identify rights to use another parcel and how they burden or benefit property in a way that fits Washington exam practice.
- D. A licensee may give legal conclusions instead of recommending qualified legal advice when uncertain.
Correct Answer
C. Identify rights to use another parcel and how they burden or benefit property in a way that fits Washington exam practice.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because easements requires candidates to identify rights to use another parcel and how they burden or benefit property. 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.
