1. On a loan secured by a buyer's principal dwelling, the loan officer tells the appraiser that future assignments depend on the value coming in at or above the contract price. Under Regulation Z, this is:

  1. Prohibited, because implying that retention depends on the reported value is coercion
  2. Permitted, because the lender is the appraiser's client and may set the value it needs
  3. Permitted as long as the loan officer makes the request in writing and keeps a copy
  4. Prohibited only if the appraiser holds a state certified (rather than licensed) credential
Show answer

Answer: A. Prohibited, because implying that retention depends on the reported value is coercion

Valuation independence rules bar covered persons from influencing the value through coercion or inducement. Implying that the appraiser's future work depends on the value reported is listed as a violation.

  3. Report the change only to the Bureau of Land Management
  4. Personally correct the recorded subdivision map
Show answer

Answer: B. File a record of the survey with the county surveyor

4. A grantor deeds land to a church 'on condition that' it be used only for worship, keeping a right of reentry if the condition is broken. Years later the church leases the land as a commercial parking lot. What interest lets the grantor end the church's estate?

  1. A vested remainder in the grantor's heirs
  2. A power of termination (right of reentry)

  4. A reversion following a life estate in the church

Answer: B. A power of termination (right of reentry)

The church holds a fee simple subject to a condition subsequent. When the condition is broken, the estate doesn't end automatically; the grantor must act on a power of termination (right of reentry) to take the land back.

What the Florida real estate sales associate exam is and who takes it

Anyone who wants a Florida real estate sales associate license must pass this state exam. It is developed for the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR), Division of Real Estate, and given by Pearson VUE. According to the DBPR candidate booklet, the exam is based on "real estate principles and practices, real estate law, and real estate mathematics as provided in Chapter 475, Part I, Florida Statutes, and Chapter 61J2, Florida Administrative Code."

Under s. 475.17, Florida Statutes, you must:

Fees and how to register and schedule

  1. Complete the required 63-hour pre-licensing course. Your school gives you a certificate of completion.
  2. Apply to DBPR with the signed application, digital fingerprints, and fee, as required by s. 475.175, F.S. Your fingerprints are checked by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and the FBI.
  3. Once the Division of Real Estate approves your application, Pearson VUE sends you an authorization letter.
  4. Book your exam online or call Pearson VUE at 888-204-6289. You can book up to one calendar day before the date you want to test, depending on availability.
  5. On exam day, bring two forms of signature identification, one of them government-issued with your photo. Also bring your Certificate of Pre-licensing Education Completion. The statute also lists the admission authorization letter.

Exam fee: Pearson VUE's Florida fact sheet lists $36.75 for the Real Estate Salesperson exam. You pay it when you reserve your seat, and it is non-refundable and non-transferable. This fact sheet is dated 2017 but is still linked from Pearson VUE's current Florida page, so confirm the fee when you book. DBPR application and license fees are charged separately. Check the current amounts with DBPR.

Changes: To cancel or reschedule without a penalty, you must do it two full calendar days before your exam.

Prerequisites: the 63-hour pre-licensing course

Under s. 475.17(2)(a)1., F.S., sales associate applicants must complete a pre-licensing course of up to 63 classroom hours of 50 minutes each, including the course exam. FREC calls this course FREC Course I. You pass the course by passing the school's course exam. Your school will not issue a completion notice if you miss more than 8 classroom hours.

This practice test does not replace that course. It is meant to help you review what the course taught and get used to the timed, 100-question format.
