NEW QUESTION # 40
Two real estate firms shared equally a 6% commission on the sale of a house. The listing licensee was paid
60% of the broker's share. The house was sold for $110,000. How much did the listing agent earn?
- A. $2,640
- B. $3,980
- C. $1,320
- D. $1,980
Answer: D
Explanation:
Calculation (Finance/Math section of the NJ Real Estate Salesperson Pre-Licensure Course Study Guide):
* Total commission = $110,000 × 6% = $6,600
* Two firms split equally: each broker gets $3,300
* Listing licensee paid 60% of broker's share: $3,300 × 0.60 = $1,980
Thus, the listing agent's earnings are $1,980.

NEW QUESTION # 42
Standard title insurance would protect a buyer:
- A. in a purchase where the buyer had knowledge of a shed violating setback requirements.
- B. when the seller has forged an ex-partner's signature on the deed.
- C. if after closing, the HOA placed a lien on the property for the previous owners' unpaid dues.
- D. for the purchase of a property bought sight unseen where the buyer discovers a tenant living at the property.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Standard title insurance protects against defects in title that existed before closing, such as forged documents, undisclosed heirs, or improperly executed deeds.
It does not cover issues arising after closing (like new HOA liens).
It does not protect against defects the buyer already knew about.
It also does not insure physical possession or condition of property.
Thus, the correct answer is A.
Reference: NJ Real Estate Salesperson Study Guide, Chapter on Title and Title Insurance.
NEW QUESTION # 43
When MUST a listing broker provide a copy of a fully executed written listing agreement to the owner?
- A. Within five business days of execution of the listing agreement
- B. Upon execution of the listing agreement by all parties
- C. At the time of presentation of a written offer
- D. Within three days of execution of the listing agreement by registered mail, return-receipt-requested
Answer: B
Explanation:
According to N.J.A.C. 11:5-6.9, every party signing a real estate listing agreement must receive a duplicate original immediately upon execution.
The copy must be delivered at the time of signing, not later.
This ensures transparency and protects both the seller and the broker.
Therefore, the correct answer is A.
Reference: NJREC Rules and Regulations, N.J.A.C. 11:5-6.9; NJ Real Estate Salesperson Study Guide, Chapter on Listing Agreements.
NEW QUESTION # 44
A buyer and broker enter into a 3-month exclusive buyer agency agreement. With regard to the broker's right to be compensated and to work with other clients, this means that during the term of this agreement, the broker
- A. is entitled to compensation even if the buyer purchases a property that they locate.
- B. is only due compensation if the buyer purchases one of the broker's listings.
- C. must be compensated by the seller.
- D. may not show a property to other buyers until the buyer decides if they want to make an offer.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Under an Exclusive Buyer Agency Agreement, the buyer agrees that the broker is their exclusive representative during the term. This creates a contractual right for the broker to be compensated regardless of who finds the property. If the buyer purchases any property during the agreement period (even one they personally locate or one listed by another brokerage), the broker is still entitled to commission as agreed.
The broker is not restricted from showing properties to other buyers at the same time, as fiduciary obligations run individually to each client.

NEW QUESTION # 45
Under the New Jersey Real Estate Sales Full Disclosure Act, the Act does NOT apply to a development project:
- A. already approved by the Department of Commerce.
- B. where the purchaser's total financial obligation is less than $5,000.
- C. extending over a 5 year period only.
- D. consisting of 10 units.
Answer: B
Explanation:
The NJ Real Estate Sales Full Disclosure Act (RESFDA) regulates sales or leases of subdivided land and certain developments to protect consumers.
Exemptions exist for small-scale projects or when the total financial obligation to the purchaser is less than
$5,000.
Developments with 100+ lots typically require registration and a Public Offering Statement.
Thus, the Act does not apply where the financial obligation is under $5,000.
Reference: NJ Real Estate Sales Full Disclosure Act, N.J.S.A. 45:15-16.27; NJ Real Estate Salesperson Study Guide, Chapter on Land Sales.
NEW QUESTION # 46
Salesperson P leaves the employ of Broker A. One of the listings at Broker A's firm has agreed to list with Salesperson P at the new firm. In this instance the listing file:
- A. cannot be taken because it belongs to Broker A.
- B. should be given to the seller.
- C. should be turned into the MLS.
- D. can be taken to the new firm so there is no interruption of service to the client.
Answer: A
Explanation:
All listings are taken in the name of the broker, not the salesperson.
When a salesperson leaves a brokerage, the listing remains the property of the broker.
The client may choose to cancel the listing and re-list with the new broker, but the listing file cannot be taken by the departing salesperson.
Correct answer = B.
Reference: NJREC Rules and Regulations; NJ Real Estate Salesperson Study Guide, Chapter on Brokerage Operations.
NEW QUESTION # 47
The listing broker has been presented with multiple offers. The seller would accept only a cash offer on the home, so the broker will present:
- A. the highest cash offer to the seller.
- B. all offers to the seller.
- C. only cash offers to the seller.
- D. the highest offer to the seller.
Answer: B
Explanation:
According to NJREC Rules (N.J.A.C. 11:5-6.9):
A licensee must present all written offers to the seller immediately (within 24 hours).
It is the seller's decision which offer to accept.
A broker cannot filter or withhold offers (cash or financed) without the seller's explicit instruction.
Correct answer = D.
Reference: NJREC Rules and Regulations; NJ Real Estate Salesperson Study Guide, Chapter on Fiduciary Duties and Offer Presentation.
NEW QUESTION # 48
Which of the following can hold escrow accounts?
- A. banks, salespersons, and title companies
- B. salespersons, brokers, and lenders
- C. lenders, brokers, and real estate commissions
- D. banks, brokers, and attorneys
Answer: D
Explanation:
Under New Jersey law:
Salespersons may NOT hold escrow accounts.
Only brokers of record, attorneys, and financial institutions (banks) may lawfully maintain escrow accounts.
The Real Estate Commission itself does not hold escrow accounts.
Therefore, the correct grouping is banks, brokers, and attorneys.
Reference: NJREC Rules and Regulations, N.J.A.C. 11:5-5.1 (Trust Accounts); New Jersey Real Estate Salesperson Study Guide, Chapter on Escrow and Trust Funds.
NEW QUESTION # 49
A seller is offering his property for sale in as-is condition. A buyer enters into a contract with the seller and has the home inspected. The inspection reveals a latent defect known to, but not disclosed by, the seller. The buyer:
- A. can void the contract due to the seller's failure to disclose the latent defect.
- B. can reduce the contract sales price by the cost of correcting the defect.
- C. can force the seller to correct the defect.
- D. must go through with the purchase because the house is being sold as is.
Answer: A
Explanation:
In New Jersey:
An "as is" sale does not relieve the seller from the duty to disclose known latent (hidden) defects.
If a seller fails to disclose a known material defect, the buyer has grounds to rescind (void) the contract or pursue legal remedies.
The buyer is not required to proceed with the purchase.
Correct answer = A.
Reference: NJREC Rules and Regulations; NJ Real Estate Salesperson Study Guide, Chapter on Seller's Disclosure and "As Is" Transactions.
NEW QUESTION # 50
Which of the following statements in an advertisement would be an example of non-discriminatory language under HUD's Fair Housing Advertising Guidelines?
- A. apartment available. No pets or children allowed
- B. located within walking distance to a great Catholic school
- C. nice home ideal for any family with children
- D. female seeking female roommate
Answer: C
Explanation:
HUD Fair Housing Advertising Guidelines prohibit words that indicate preference or limitation based on protected classes (race, sex, religion, familial status, etc.).
"Female seeking female roommate" = gender preference # discriminatory.
"No pets or children allowed" = familial status discrimination.
"Catholic school" = religious preference.
"Ideal for any family with children" = permitted because it is descriptive and not exclusionary.
Correct answer = B.
Reference: HUD Fair Housing Advertising Guidelines; NJ Real Estate Salesperson Study Guide, Chapter on Fair Housing.
NEW QUESTION # 51
A broker may legally refuse to accept a listing:
- A. only if the owner's instructions are illegal.
- B. under no circumstances; all owners are entitled to professional representation in the sale of their property.
- C. only if the seller cannot give clear title to the property.
- D. at any time, for any legitimate reason.
Answer: D
Explanation:
A broker is not obligated to accept every listing.
A broker may refuse listings for legitimate reasons (e.g., property is overpriced, owner is uncooperative, outside area of expertise).
The only prohibition is that brokers cannot refuse a listing for discriminatory reasons in violation of fair housing laws.
Correct answer = A.
Reference: NJ Real Estate Salesperson Study Guide, Chapter on Agency Agreements and Fiduciary Duties.
NEW QUESTION # 52
A prospective buyer calls a licensed New Jersey salesperson to inquire about a property listed with that salesperson's brokerage. During the first substantive discussion about the property's price and terms, the salesperson must
- A. provide the CIS at closing when all agency relationships are finalized.
- B. wait until the buyer is ready to make an offer before presenting the CIS.
- C. immediately provide the Consumer Information Statement (CIS).
- D. only provide the CIS if the buyer asks for agency representation.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Under New Jersey Real Estate Commission (NJREC) Regulations, licensed brokers and salespersons are required to provide the Consumer Information Statement (CIS) to clients and customers at the first substantive discussion about the price, terms, or motivation regarding a specific property.
The purpose of the CIS is to disclose to the consumer the various types of business relationships available in New Jersey (seller's agent, buyer's agent, disclosed dual agent, and transaction broker) and to clarify how the licensee intends to work with them.
Important rules from N.J.A.C. 11:5-6.9:
* The CIS must be given before any confidential information is disclosed or before an offer is written
, whichever occurs first.
* A "first substantive contact" means when a buyer or seller begins discussing financial or personal motivation about the transaction.
* Failing to provide the CIS at the proper time is considered a violation of agency disclosure requirements and can subject the licensee to disciplinary action by NJREC.
Therefore, the correct answer is A, because the CIS must be provided immediately at the first substantive discussion.
Reference: New Jersey Real Estate Commission, Rules and Regulations, N.J.A.C. 11:5-6.9 (Agency Disclosure / Consumer Information Statement); New Jersey Real Estate Salesperson Pre-Licensure Course Study Guide, Chapter on Agency and Business Relationships.
NEW QUESTION # 53
Are electronic signatures enforceable on a real estate contract?
- A. Yes, because they are allowed by the federal government.
- B. No, because they must be signed and witnessed.
- C. Yes, because they are legal in real estate transactions.
- D. No, because they are only allowed on deeds.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Electronic signatures are legally enforceable under the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN Act, 2000) and the New Jersey Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA, N.J.S.
A). 12A:12-1 et seq.).
These laws confirm that electronic signatures are valid and binding in real estate contracts, listings, leases, and other documents.
They are not restricted to deeds, and do not require witnessing to be valid.
Therefore, the correct answer is B.
Reference: Federal E-SIGN Act (2000); NJ Uniform Electronic Transactions Act; NJ Real Estate Salesperson Study Guide, Chapter on Contracts and Closing.
NEW QUESTION # 54
A landlord may require that a disabled tenant
- A. pay an additional fee for using the swimming pool to cover the added insurance cost.
- B. remove the wheelchair ramp from the apartment upon vacating the unit.
- C. not install grab bars in the tile shower if drilling holes in the tile is required.
- D. pay double the usual $500 security deposit.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Under the Federal Fair Housing Act (as applied in New Jersey), landlords must permit disabled tenants to make reasonable modifications to the premises at the tenant's expense, such as installing ramps or grab bars.
However:
The landlord cannot charge additional fees (answers A and B are discriminatory).
The landlord cannot prohibit installation of necessary accessibility aids (answer D is illegal).
The landlord can require the tenant to restore the property to its original condition upon vacating, which includes removing modifications such as ramps if they were installed.
Therefore, the correct answer is C.
