Free AL Salesperson Practice Questions

Question 1

An Alabama seller tells the listing salesperson that the basement floods after heavy rain, but the finished walls conceal the water damage. The seller directs the salesperson to say nothing unless a buyer specifically asks about flooding. What should the salesperson do?

Accepted Answer

Disclose the known flooding because it is significant to a reasonable and prudent buyer

Answer

Follow the seller's instruction because the condition is not visible and the buyer has not asked

Answer

Recommend a general home inspection without revealing the known flooding condition

Answer

Wait for the buyer's inspector to determine whether the condition is serious enough to disclose

Question 2

A buyer offers $410,000 for a home with a June 15 closing. Before signing, the seller changes the closing date to June 30, signs the document, and returns it. The buyer rejects the changed terms. What was the legal effect of the seller's response?

Accepted Answer

It rejected the original offer and created a counteroffer that the buyer could reject

Answer

It accepted the original offer because the purchase price remained unchanged

Answer

It left the original offer open because a closing-date change does not affect acceptance

Answer

It created an option allowing the buyer to accept either closing date

Question 3

On the afternoon before closing, a buyer receives an email that appears to come from the title company. It gives new wiring instructions and says the change is urgent. The account information differs from the instructions previously provided. What is the best next step?

Accepted Answer

Verify the change through a known, independently obtained contact before sending funds

Answer

Send a small test transfer to the new account and wire the balance if it clears

Answer

Reply to the email and ask the sender to confirm the new account number

Answer

Cancel the transaction immediately and report every participant before seeking verification

Question 4

AREC issues an active temporary salesperson license on May 20, so its one-year term begins June 1. The licensee completes the 30-hour postlicense course on November 25 and files the original-license application on November 29, but AREC does not issue the original license until December 4. What is the licensee's status on December 1?

Accepted Answer

Inactive, because the original license had not actually been issued by the November 30 six-month deadline

Answer

Active, because completing the postlicense course before the deadline alone preserves active status while AREC processes the application

Answer

Active, because filing the original-license application before November 30 satisfies the issuance requirement

Answer

Lapsed permanently, because missing the six-month deadline ends the temporary license

Question 5

A buyer agrees to pay $325,000 for a property appraised at $310,000 and seeks a $263,500 conventional loan. The lender calculates purchase LTV as loan amount divided by the lesser of price or appraised value and requires PMI when LTV exceeds 80%. Which underwriting conclusion follows?

Accepted Answer

85.0% LTV; PMI is required

Answer

81.1% LTV; PMI is not required

Answer

85.0% LTV; PMI is not required

Answer

81.1% LTV; PMI is required

Question 6

A condominium assigns parking spaces strictly on a first-come basis. A resident whose mobility disability makes distant parking difficult asks for a reserved space near the accessible entrance. How should the association evaluate the request under the federal Fair Housing Act?

Accepted Answer

Treat it as a reasonable accommodation and grant it if it is necessary and reasonable

Answer

Treat it as a structural modification that the resident may make only at personal expense

Answer

Deny it because applying the same parking rule to every resident prevents discrimination

Answer

Put the request to a resident vote because parking policies affect the entire community

Question 7

An Alabama sales contract fails, and the buyer and seller dispute entitlement to the earnest money. The contract does not authorize the qualifying broker to decide the dispute. The buyer demands payment, while the seller objects in writing. Which course is proper?

Accepted Answer

Hold it pending an all-party written agreement or court order, or use interpleader

Answer

Pay the buyer because the party who supplied the deposit owns it after a failed transaction

Answer

Divide the money equally if the parties do not agree within seven business days

Answer

Let the listing salesperson determine which party first breached the contract

Question 8

An apartment property has annual potential gross income of $144,000, vacancy and collection loss of $6,000, other income of $3,000, and operating expenses of $49,000. Annual debt service is $30,000, and a $12,000 roof replacement is planned. Using Value = NOI / capitalization rate and an 8% rate, what value is indicated?

Accepted Answer

$1,150,000

Answer

$625,000

Answer

$775,000

Answer

$1,762,500

Question 9

An Alabama brokerage represents the seller and the buyer through two different affiliated licensees, each working under a separate written agency agreement. The qualifying broker makes written designations as soon as reasonably possible. Which description is accurate?

Accepted Answer

This is designated single agency; common supervision alone creates neither dual agency nor imputed knowledge

Answer

Both licensees are dual agents because the same qualifying broker supervises adverse clients and therefore must personally represent both parties

Answer

Both licensees must act only as transaction facilitators once their clients have adverse interests

Answer

The arrangement is prohibited unless the two licensees work for separate brokerages

Question 10

A restaurant tenant bolts a commercial pizza oven to the floor for use in the business. The lease is silent, and the oven can be removed before the lease ends without material damage. How is the oven ordinarily treated?

Accepted Answer

As a trade fixture the tenant may remove before the tenancy ends

Answer

As a fixture that became the landlord's property when it was bolted down

Answer

As tenant property only if the landlord signs a separate removal agreement

Answer

As a fixture the tenant may remove only after the lease has expired
