NEW QUESTION # 33
Rules for Truth in Lending and RESPA call for disclosure documents to borrowers. How can a managing broker best prepare associated licensees to manage these disclosures?
- A. Because the listing broker will be primarily responsible for completing the Loan Estimate to send to the lender, the broker should train associated licensees to collect all the necessary information in a timely fashion.
- B. Because the lender has primary responsibility to provide these forms, the broker and licensees should be aware of the items required for the lender to comply.
- C. The buyer's broker can provide samples so that when the licensee and the borrower prepare the forms they are following a good example.
- D. The managing broker should train licensees to advise borrowers to accept the Loan Estimate right away.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation (150-250 words):
Under TILA-RESPA Integrated Disclosure (TRID) rules, lenders are responsible for providing the Loan Estimate (LE) within three business days of application and the Closing Disclosure (CD) at least three business days before closing. Brokers and agents do not prepare these forms but must understand their content so they can answer client questions and ensure compliance.
The managing broker's best preparation is to train licensees to be knowledgeable about the disclosures and timelines, and to understand what information lenders require from buyers to complete them. This helps prevent delays and ensures borrowers are protected.
Options A, C, and D are incorrect because licensees neither prepare the LE/CD nor advise acceptance "right away." The lender bears responsibility; brokers must only ensure that clients understand their rights and obligations.
Thus, the correct answer is B.

NEW QUESTION # 34
Deposit money received by a salesperson must be turned over to the salesperson's broker
- A. Immediately.
- B. Within three days.
- C. At the signing of the purchase and sale agreement.
- D. At the date specified in the offer to purchase.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Under 254 CMR 3.10, all deposit money received by a salesperson must be immediately turned over to the salesperson's broker for deposit into the escrow account. It is the broker's responsibility to ensure that the funds are properly held and protected, not the salesperson's.
The rule is clear that the funds should be handed over immediately. Any delay in submitting the funds to the broker could violate escrow rules and could result in disciplinary action.
Reference: 254 CMR 3.10 - Handling of Client Funds; Massachusetts Real Estate Candidate Information Bulletin - Escrow Procedures.
NEW QUESTION # 35
An advertisement emphasizes information meant to appeal to a particular ethnic or national group in an effort to maintain the character of the neighborhood. From the viewpoint of the federal Fair Housing Act, this could constitute a violation known as
- A. redlining.
- B. panic selling.
- C. steering.
- D. blockbusting.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation (150-250 words):
The Fair Housing Act prohibits discriminatory advertising that suggests preference, limitation, or discrimination based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, or disability. Advertising designed to appeal to a particular ethnic or national group in order to "maintain neighborhood character" is an example of steering - influencing or directing prospective buyers or sellers based on protected class considerations.
Blockbusting (C) involves inducing owners to sell due to fear of demographic changes.
Redlining (B) refers to lenders refusing loans in certain neighborhoods.
Panic selling (D) is essentially synonymous with blockbusting, not advertising.
Thus, targeted ethnic advertising with the intent to control neighborhood composition is considered steering.
Reference: Fair Housing Act, 42 U.S.C. 3604(c); Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Candidate Handbook - Fair Housing.
NEW QUESTION # 36
If a lender has granted a VA-guaranteed loan to a veteran, the veteran
- A. may sell the property to another veteran who assumes the loan.
- B. makes the down payment directly to the VA.
- C. cannot apply for another VA loan in the veteran's lifetime.
- D. cannot prepay any of the principal amount of the loan.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation (150-250 words):
A VA-guaranteed loan allows veterans to purchase with little or no down payment. Once the loan is made, the veteran deals directly with the lender - not the VA. The VA guarantees repayment to the lender if default occurs.
A: Down payments, if required, are paid to the lender, not the VA.
B: Veterans may obtain multiple VA loans in a lifetime, depending on eligibility and entitlement.
C: VA loans allow prepayment without penalty.
D: VA loans are assumable, meaning another veteran (or even non-veteran, with lender approval) may assume the existing financing, often a benefit if the loan has a favorable interest rate.
Correct answer: D.

NEW QUESTION # 37
A rectangular lot contains 16,500 square feet. It has a depth of 150 feet. Each of two adjacent rectangular lots contains 4,950 square feet with a depth of 150 feet. What is the total street frontage of the three lots in linear feet?
- A. 0
- B. 1
- C. 2
- D. 3
Answer: B
Explanation:
But notice the answer choices do not include 176 except as D. This matches our calculation.
Therefore, the correct frontage is 176 feet (D).
(Note: The original problem text contained a typo listing 15 ft depth for the smaller lots, which is mathematically inconsistent. With the corrected 150 ft depth, the frontage answer is 176.) Reference: Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Candidate Handbook - Math (Area, Frontage, Lot Dimensions).
NEW QUESTION # 38
A buyer and seller agreed upon a selling price for a property and both signed a written agreement. As part of the contract, the buyer reserved the right to cancel the sale if the buyer's house, which was on the market, did not sell within 30 days. This contract is
- A. an executed contract.
- B. a unilateral contract.
- C. an executory contract.
- D. an implied contract.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation (150-250 words):
An executory contract is one in which one or more terms remain to be performed. In this case, although the purchase agreement is signed, the buyer's performance is contingent upon selling their home within 30 days.
Until that contingency is satisfied, the contract remains executory.
A (executed contract): would mean all terms have been performed.
B (unilateral contract): involves only one party making a promise, e.g., an option. This is bilateral.
D (implied contract): arises by conduct, not by a written agreement.
Thus, the correct answer is C: executory contract.
Reference: Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Candidate Handbook - Contracts; Executory vs. Executed Contracts.
NEW QUESTION # 39
A broker has been engaged to locate a property for a buyer. The broker has determined that a suitable property for the buyer is for sale and is owned by the broker's cousin. The broker has not informed the buyer of the broker's relationship with the owner. If the buyer purchases the property under these circumstances, the broker is
- A. Not violating the license law because the broker in this situation has no duty of disclosure.
- B. Not violating the license law because a relative's interest is an exception to the fiduciary duty rule.
- C. Violating the license law because it is illegal to purchase family property for a principal.
- D. Violating the license law because a relative's interest shall be made known to all parties.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Under Massachusetts real estate license law, a broker must disclose any personal interest, or the interest of an immediate family member, in a transaction to all parties. This is a matter of fiduciary duty and is explicitly required under 254 CMR 3.00.
Failing to disclose that the seller is the broker's cousin constitutes a conflict of interest and violates the duty of loyalty, disclosure, and honesty to the client (the buyer). While it is not illegal to buy or sell property involving relatives, the relationship must always be made known to avoid misrepresentation or concealment of material facts.
Therefore, the broker is in violation because the familial relationship was not disclosed.
Reference: 254 CMR 3.00 - Duties of Licensees; M.G.L. c. 112, § 87AAA; Massachusetts Real Estate Candidate Information Bulletin - Agency & Disclosure.
NEW QUESTION # 40
Real estate taxes that are paid in advance are prorated on the closing statement as
- A. no entry to buyer; a credit to seller.
- B. a credit to buyer; a debit to seller.
- C. no entry to buyer; a debit to seller.
- D. a debit to buyer; a credit to seller.
Answer: B
Explanation:
When real estate taxes are paid in advance, the seller has already paid for a period extending beyond the closing date. Since the buyer will benefit from part of that prepaid period, the buyer must reimburse the seller for the portion after closing.
In the closing statement, this appears as:
Credit to Buyer (because the buyer is receiving benefit from prepaid taxes).
Debit to Seller (because the seller has already advanced the payment).
This ensures fairness so that each party pays taxes only for the time they own the property.
Reference: Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Candidate Handbook - Closing & Settlement; Real Estate Math (Prorations).
NEW QUESTION # 41
Which of the following activities may result in a fine from the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination (MCAD) against a licensee?
- A. Blockbusting
- B. Acting in the dual capacity of broker and undisclosed principal in the same transaction
- C. Failing to give both the buyer and the seller a copy of the purchase and sales agreement
- D. Knowingly making any substantial misrepresentation
Answer: A
Explanation:
The Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination (MCAD) is the state agency responsible for enforcing the Massachusetts Fair Housing Law (M.G.L. c. 151B). Blockbusting is the illegal practice of inducing homeowners to sell by suggesting that protected classes of people (such as minorities, families with children, or people receiving public assistance) are moving into the neighborhood, often suggesting declining property values.
This practice is explicitly prohibited under both federal law (Fair Housing Act) and Massachusetts General Law. MCAD has the authority to investigate complaints of housing discrimination and levy fines against licensees found guilty of such violations.
While misrepresentation or undisclosed dual capacity may lead to disciplinary action by the Massachusetts Board of Registration of Real Estate Brokers and Salespersons, only violations of fair housing law, such as blockbusting, steering, or refusing to deal with members of protected classes, fall under the jurisdiction of MCAD.
Reference: Massachusetts General Laws c. 151B; MCAD Fair Housing Guidelines; 254 CMR 3.00.
NEW QUESTION # 42
A salesperson's client is the lessee. Who does the salesperson represent?
- A. tenant
- B. lender
- C. lien holder
- D. landlord
Answer: A
Explanation:
In a leasing transaction, the lessee is the tenant - the party obtaining the right to occupy and use the property.
The lessor is the landlord, who owns the property and grants possession through the lease.
Therefore, when a salesperson's client is the lessee, the salesperson represents the tenant in the transaction.
The role is similar to representing a buyer in a purchase transaction - the agent owes fiduciary duties such as loyalty, confidentiality, and disclosure to the tenant client.
The other options do not apply:
Lender (A) provides financing, not leasing services.
Landlord (C) would be the lessor, not the lessee.
Lien holder (D) is a creditor with a security interest in property, unrelated to this relationship.
Thus, the correct answer is B: tenant.
Reference: Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Candidate Handbook - Agency Law; M.G.L. c.112,87AAA-112.
NEW QUESTION # 43
A property manager has successfully negotiated the lease of a home built in 1965 to tenants who have no children. Regarding disclosure of lead-based paint, the property manager should
- A. give the tenants 10 days to test the home and provide them with the required booklet.
- B. do nothing, as regulations only apply when children are present.
- C. have the tenants sign the disclosure form and provide them with the required booklet.
- D. have all the lead-based paint covered or removed by licensed mitigators.
Answer: C
Explanation:
The Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act (Title X, 1992) requires that landlords and sellers of housing built before 1978 disclose any known lead-based paint hazards to prospective tenants or buyers.
Massachusetts enforces this rule strictly due to its older housing stock.
The law applies regardless of whether children are present. Tenants must receive:
An EPA-approved lead hazard information booklet.
A disclosure form confirming acknowledgment.
Tenants must be informed of their right to test for lead, but in a lease situation they do not automatically get a
10-day inspection period (that applies to sales, not rentals). Covering or removing lead paint (B) is only required if a child under six will occupy the property in Massachusetts, under the Lead Law (M.G.L. c.111
§197).
Thus, the correct answer is D.
Reference: EPA Lead-Based Paint Disclosure Rule; Massachusetts Lead Law; Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Candidate Handbook - Environmental Issues.
NEW QUESTION # 44
An appraisal made by a certified appraiser is required
- A. when heirs receive property.
- B. when the buyer is using an FHA loan to purchase.
- C. before real property can transfer from one owner to another.
- D. before any property settlement in a divorce.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation (150-250 words):
Federal law (FIRREA, 1989) and HUD regulations require that FHA and VA loans be supported by an appraisal from a state-licensed or certified appraiser. The purpose is to determine whether the property meets minimum standards and supports the loan amount.
A: Appraisals are not required for all property transfers, only certain financed ones.
B: Inheritances may require valuations for estate tax purposes, but not necessarily certified appraisals.
D: Divorce settlements may require appraisals for division of assets, but this is not federally mandated.
Thus, the correct answer is C.
Reference: HUD Handbook 4000.1; Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Candidate Handbook - Appraisal
/Financing.
NEW QUESTION # 45
A person acquires an option to purchase a parcel of another person's land. Which of the following statements is correct?
- A. The potential buyer is the optionor and the seller is the optionee.
- B. The terms and conditions of the sale must be stated if the option is to be a valid contract.
- C. An option is a promise by the optionee to enter into a contract in the future.
- D. The consideration for the option right, plus interest, will be automatically applied to the purchase price if the option is exercised.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation (150-250 words):
An option contract is a unilateral contract in which the seller (optionor) grants the buyer (optionee) the exclusive right to purchase property at a specified price within a set time. For the option to be valid, the terms and conditions of the future sale must be clearly stated (price, property description, and time period).
Consideration (option money) must also be given.
A: Incorrect because only the optionor (seller) is obligated; the optionee (buyer) is not required to purchase.
C: Option consideration is not automatically applied unless the contract specifically states it.
D: Reverses the roles; the seller is the optionor, the buyer is the optionee.
Thus, the correct answer is B.
Reference: Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Candidate Handbook - Contracts; Options in Real Estate.
NEW QUESTION # 46
In a jurisdiction where the common law of agency applies, a broker has listed a home and then presented to the seller an offer from another client of the broker. The offer has been accepted. The broker has what type of agency relationship with the parties?
- A. seller agency, no agency relationship with buyer
- B. dual agency
- C. seller agency, buyer sub-agency
- D. no agency relationship; in this situation the broker becomes a facilitator only
Answer: B
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation (150-250 words):
Under the common law of agency, an agent owes fiduciary duties to the party they represent. If a broker represents a seller under a listing agreement but also brings a buyer who is their client, the broker now represents both parties in the same transaction. This creates a dual agency relationship.
Dual agency is lawful in Massachusetts only if there is full disclosure and written informed consent from both parties. Without disclosure, it would be an undisclosed dual agency, which is illegal.
A: Incorrect - the broker does represent the buyer.
B: Facilitation is a non-agency relationship, but that's not the case here.
C: Buyer is not a sub-agent of the seller; they are a client.
Correct answer: D: dual agency.
Reference: Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Candidate Handbook - Agency Law; 254 CMR 3.00.
NEW QUESTION # 47
A broker has a single agency relationship with the seller. Any required property condition disclosure would be completed by the
- A. seller.
- B. broker.
- C. listing agent on behalf of seller.
- D. listing agent on behalf of broker.
Answer: A
Explanation:
In Massachusetts, the seller is legally responsible for completing the property condition disclosure form. The listing broker or agent may provide the form and ensure it is delivered to prospective buyers, but they do not complete it on behalf of the seller.
The rationale is that the seller is the party with direct knowledge of the property's condition. Licensees must never fill out the disclosure themselves, as this could expose them to liability for inaccuracies. The broker's duty is limited to ensuring the disclosure is provided in accordance with Massachusetts law (M.G.L. c.93,
114) but not to make representations or complete the document.
Thus, the correct answer is A: seller.
Reference: Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Candidate Handbook - Agency & Disclosure Obligations;
M.G.L. c. 93,114.
NEW QUESTION # 48
The provisions of the Real Estate License Law apply to which of the following individuals?
- A. Salespersons who sell their primary residences
- B. A regular employee of a property owner who conducts lease transactions on the property
- C. A licensed person who for a fee receives a referral from a licensed broker
- D. A property manager who handles the sale of units within a managed condominium complex
Answer: D
Explanation:
The Massachusetts Real Estate License Law (M.G.L. c. 112, §§ 87PP-87DDD) applies to anyone who engages in the business of buying, selling, leasing, or negotiating real estate transactions for a fee, commission, or other valuable consideration, unless specifically exempt.
Exemptions include:
Regular salaried employees of property owners who lease or manage property owned by their employer (no license needed).
Salespersons selling their own primary residence (no license needed, as owners always may sell their own property).
Referrals: A licensed person may receive compensation, but unlicensed referral fees are prohibited.
A property manager who handles sales of units (not just leasing or maintenance) is engaged in brokerage activities requiring a license. Therefore, the Real Estate License Law applies in this case.
Reference: M.G.L. c. 112, §§ 87QQ, 87RR; Massachusetts Real Estate Candidate Information Bulletin - Licensing Requirements.
NEW QUESTION # 49
An owner has a freestanding cabinet that was custom-built to fit an alcove of the living room. When the owner sells the home, the cabinet will be best described as
- A. an appurtenance.
- B. real property.
- C. a fixture.
- D. personal property.
Answer: C
Explanation:
A fixture is personal property that has been permanently attached or adapted to real estate so that it becomes part of the real property. Courts apply the MARIA test (Method of attachment, Adaptation, Relationship, Intention, Agreement) to determine fixture status.
In this case, the cabinet was custom-built to fit an alcove, making it uniquely adapted to the property. Even though it is freestanding, its adaptation to the structure makes it a fixture.
Real property (A): the land and everything permanently attached, which includes fixtures, but the more precise term here is "fixture." Personal property (B): movable and not adapted to the home.
Appurtenance (D): rights and benefits that run with the land (e.g., easements).
Thus, the best description is C: fixture.
Reference: Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Candidate Handbook - Property Ownership; Fixtures vs.
Personal Property.
NEW QUESTION # 50
A broker lists a property for ninety days. A buyer stops at the owner's residence and makes an offer for the property, which the owner accepts. The broker has no knowledge of the sales agreement between the buyer and the owner. The broker is entitled to a commission from the sale if the agreement the broker had with the owner was a(n)
- A. Exclusive right-to-sell listing.
- B. Exclusive agency listing.
- C. Open listing.
- D. Net listing.
Answer: A
Explanation:
An exclusive right-to-sell listing guarantees that the broker will receive a commission no matter who finds the buyer - even if the owner sells the property themselves. If the broker had an exclusive right-to-sell listing with the owner, the broker is entitled to a commission if the property sells during the listing period, regardless of whether the broker was involved in the sale or not.
Exclusive agency listing only entitles the broker to a commission if they or another agent find the buyer; if the owner sells the property themselves, they do not owe the broker a commission.
Open listing allows the owner to sell the property themselves without owing the broker a commission unless the broker finds the buyer.
Net listing is illegal in Massachusetts as it could encourage brokers to manipulate the sale price for their own benefit.
Thus, the broker is entitled to a commission if the listing was an exclusive right-to-sell.
Reference: Massachusetts Real Estate License Law, M.G.L. c. 112, §§ 87PP-87DDD; 254 CMR 2.00 - Listings.
NEW QUESTION # 51
A veteran has applied for a VA loan to purchase a house with a sale price of $90,000. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) appraised the house at $85,000. In this situation, the veteran
- A. cannot secure a VA loan because such loans are limited to a maximum of $75,000.
- B. may use the VA loan to buy the house after making a down payment of $5,000.
- C. may buy the property with the VA loan only if the seller agrees to take back a second mortgage for
$5,000. - D. may buy the property with the VA loan only if the price is reduced to $85,000.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation (150-250 words):
The VA loan program guarantees part of the loan, but it is always based on the VA's Notice of Value (NOV), which is capped at the appraised value ($85,000 in this case). The veteran may still purchase at the higher price ($90,000), but must make up the difference in cash:
90
,
000
#
85
,
000
=
5
,
000
90,000#85,000=5,000
Thus, the veteran can proceed with a $5,000 down payment plus the VA-guaranteed loan of $85,000.
B: Incorrect; VA loans are not capped at $75,000.
C: The seller does not have to lower the price, though they may.
D: VA loans do not allow secondary financing to cover the appraisal gap.
Correct answer: A.
Reference: VA Lender's Handbook (Chapter 3 - The Appraisal Process); Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Candidate Handbook - Financing/VA Loans.
NEW QUESTION # 52
An offer of $569,000 is verbally accepted by a seller. Two hours later an offer of $589,000 is presented to the seller, which the seller accepts in writing. Based on the above situation the first buyer is
- A. Entitled to an additional offer.
- B. Entitled to purchase the property.
- C. Not entitled to the status as a backup offer.
- D. Not entitled to purchase the property.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Under Massachusetts law and the Statute of Frauds (M.G.L. c. 259), all contracts for the sale of real property must be in writing and signed to be enforceable. A verbal acceptance of an offer does not create a binding real estate contract. Therefore, when the seller verbally accepted the first offer of $569,000, no enforceable agreement was formed.
Later, when the seller accepted the $589,000 offer in writing, that acceptance created the first legally binding contract because it was in writing and signed. The first buyer cannot compel the seller to sell to them, as there was no enforceable written agreement.
Thus, the first buyer is not entitled to purchase the property. Only the second, written offer created enforceable contractual rights.
Reference: Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 259 (Statute of Frauds); Massachusetts Real Estate Candidate Information Bulletin, Section: Contracts.
NEW QUESTION # 53
A seller wants $120,000 for a home and still owes $20,000 of the original loan at 7% interest. The current interest rate is 12%. A buyer can pay $60,000 down and wants to carry a mortgage that includes the seller's
$20,000 existing mortgage and the remaining $40,000 for a total of $60,000 at an interest rate of 10%. What kind of mortgage loan is this?
- A. blanket
- B. equity
- C. buydown
- D. wraparound
Answer: D
Explanation:
A wraparound mortgage is a type of seller financing in which the new loan "wraps around" an existing loan.
The buyer makes one combined payment to the seller, who continues paying the original loan while retaining the difference.
In this case:
The seller owes $20,000 at 7%.
The buyer wants to borrow $60,000 total ($20,000 existing + $40,000 new).
The new loan is structured at 10% interest, covering both debts.
This is exactly how a wraparound mortgage works: the seller finances the buyer's loan, keeps the existing mortgage in place, and earns the difference between the interest rates.
The other options:
Blanket mortgage (A): covers multiple parcels.
Equity loan (B): based on homeowner equity.
Buydown (D): involves prepaying interest to reduce borrower's rate.
Correct answer: C: wraparound.
Reference: Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson Candidate Handbook - Financing; Real Estate Finance Principles.
NEW QUESTION # 54
When real estate brokers and salespersons engage in renting residential dwelling units, they must provide a prospective tenant with written notice of the
- A. Name and address of the landlord.
- B. Amount of the rent.
- C. Amount of fee, if any, that the prospective tenant will have to pay for the broker's services.
- D. Presence of any sex offenders living in the neighborhood.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Under M.G.L. c. 112, § 87DDD½, Massachusetts law requires real estate brokers and salespersons engaged in renting residential property to provide prospective tenants with a written notice stating the amount of any broker's fee, and whether the tenant will be responsible for paying it. This disclosure must be made before the tenant is obligated to pay any fee.
This law protects tenants from unexpected costs and ensures transparency in rental transactions. While rental amount, landlord details, and public information such as the state's sex offender registry may be relevant, the statutory requirement specifically addresses broker compensation. Failure to provide this written notice may result in disciplinary action by the Massachusetts Board of Registration of Real Estate Brokers and Salespersons.
Reference: M.G.L. c. 112, 87DDD½; 254 CMR 7.00.
NEW QUESTION # 55
A buyer is looking in several different cities for land to purchase for a shopping center. The buyer has decided to hire several real estate licensees, each representing the buyer in that licensee's city. Which type of agreement would protect the buyer from owing multiple commissions?
- A. nonexclusive buyer-agency
- B. nonexclusive right-to-lease
- C. exclusive agency representation
- D. exclusive right to sell
Answer: A
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation (150-250 words):
A nonexclusive buyer-agency agreement allows the buyer to work with multiple agents at the same time. The buyer is only responsible for paying commission to the agent who actually finds the property they purchase.
This prevents the buyer from being obligated to pay multiple commissions.
A (exclusive agency representation): binds the buyer to only one agent, but allows self-procurement.
B: Refers to leases, not purchases.
D: Exclusive right-to-sell applies to sellers, not buyers.
Thus, the correct agreement is C: nonexclusive buyer-agency.
