1 of 50 - Janet is a broker who negotiates a number of loans to specific subdivisions. Last year, she took part in 27 loans to homeowners in one subdivision. Due to this large number of loans to a subdivision, Janet has to report loan activities to the California BRE. What is the name of this reporting process, how often must the reports be made, and what is an additional requirement for making these reports?
The annual and quarterly process is Uniform Reporting. Additionally, if a broker negotiates more than $5,000,000.00 in loans annually, he must take part in Uniform Reporting.
The annual and quarterly process is Threshold Reporting. Additionally, if a broker negotiates more than $2,000,000.00 in loans annually, he must take part in Threshold Reporting.
The annual and quarterly process is Trust Reporting. Additionally, if a broker negotiates more than $2,000,000.00 in loans annually, he must take part in Threshold Reporting.

2 of 50 - Wallace and Melissa live in a small rural community of just over 15,000. They want to purchase a home and start a small home-based business.

8 of 50 - Janice has given her broker an earnest money deposit check with written instructions to hold the check until the seller has accepted her offer. Her broker follows instructions and informs the seller, through a telephone conversation with the seller's agent after the initial offer was presented, the buyer's check is being held awaiting offer acceptance. Did Janice's broker handle this situation correctly?
No, the broker must inform the seller in writing the buyer's check is being held until acceptance of the offer.

No, the broker must inform the seller of the buyer's check being held at the exact time the actual offer is presented.
Both A and C
You answered incorrectly
When a check is presented as earnest money with instructions to hold the check until the offer is accepted, the broker must notify the seller in writing at the same time the actual offer is presented.
9 of 50 - Thad and Pierre made an appointment to view a condo for lease advertised in the newspaper. Thad phoned the landlord and set up a viewing for two hours later in the day. The couple thought the condo was perfect and informed the landlord they wanted to start the application process to lease the condo. The landlord then explained the condo had just been leased. The next Sunday in the classifieds, the condo was again advertised for lease. A friend of the couple phoned the landlord, pretending to be interested in the property. When asked if it had been leased, the landlord replied "No". What is going on in this situation?
Probably nothing at all. The condo was probably leased in the two hours between the couple's phone call and their viewing. Chances are the lease fell through for various reasons.
It seems the landlord did not like the idea of leasing his condo to a same sex couple. This is not permissible. A landlord must live by federal and state fair housing laws.
More than likely the landlord was not happy with the sexual orientation of Thad and Pierre. He owns the condo and may lease it out to whomever he sees fit.
None of the Above.

10 of 50 - Bob leased an apartment for three years from the Steiners. He was never late on his rent in those three years, kept the apartment immaculate, and never caused a moment of trouble. He has recently purchased his first home and moved out of the apartment. As expected, Bob gave the Steiners sixty days’ notice he would be moving and left the apartment in perfect condition. It has been 45 days since he moved out and he's been watching for his security deposit refund to purchase a new sofa. When should he expect his security deposit refunded?
If there had been no damage or cleaning required, which seemed highly likely in Bob's case, the landlord should have refunded his security deposit within 21 days of Bob's vacating the property.
If there had been no damage or cleaning required, which seemed highly unlikely in Bob's case, the landlord should have refunded his security deposit within 30 days of Bob's vacating the property.
If there had been no damage or cleaning required, which seemed highly unlikely in Bob's case, the landlord should have refunded his security deposit within 14 days of Bob's vacating the property.
None of the Above.

Landlords are required to return security deposits within 21 days of the tenant vacating the property unless there are charges to be deducted from the deposit for repairs or cleaning.

14 of 50 - Adeeb has listed his condo with Maria's broker and she is his listing agent. The listing agreement is signed and the day to begin showing his property is nearing. Adeeb decides the day before the open house to raise his asking price by $20,000. Maria disagrees with the decision but goes along with Adeeb's wishes. How must Maria take care of this contractual change in price?
Maria must change the listing price on a price change or extension form.
Maria may make the change on the original contract due to the fact the condo has not been professionally shown by licensees.
The listing price change does not need to be changed on the contract. The price that will be paid for the condo does not have to be the listing price; therefore, it is just a guide, not set in stone.
None of the Above.
You answered incorrectly
Because the original listing agreement has been put in writing and signed by both parties, changes to listing price must then be made on a separate price change or extension form.

21 of 50 - Brian and Leslie have made an offer on Rudy and Judith's home. The first offer was rejected by the sellers. Brian and Leslie made another offer; Rudy and Judith rejected that offer. Never quitters, Brian and Leslie decided to try one last time and present their last and best offer. Rudy and Judith decide the prospective buyers are close, and make a counteroffer. What's the situation after a counteroffer is made by the sellers?
The sellers cannot make a counteroffer to the buyer. They can either accept the buyer's offer or reject it.
Once the counteroffer is made by the seller, the buyer's original offer becomes invalid. If the buyers accepts the offer the seller has made, the same process takes place as with a regular offer.
The process will basically start completely from scratch. If the buyers reject the seller's counteroffer, the sellers can go back to the buyer's previous offer and accept.
