A public utility company is installing power lines across several counties. Will the utility company be more likely to be granted an easement appurtenant or an easement in gross?

  1. easement appurtenant because it cannot run with the land
  2. easement appurtenant because it cannot be extinguished by merger of the dominant and servient tenements
  3. easement in gross because it does not require ownership of real property adjacent to the property that is subject to the easement
  4. easement in gross because it allows the holder of the easement to eventually gain title to the encumbered property

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

An easement in gross benefits a person or entity, rather than another parcel of land. Unlike an easement appurtenant, which requires a dominant and servient estate (two adjoining parcels), an easement in gross does not require ownership of adjacent property.

Utility companies (electric, gas, water, sewer, cable) typically hold easements in gross, allowing them to install and maintain lines across multiple properties. The easement is granted to the utility company, not to a neighboring landowner.

Therefore, the correct answer is C.

Which of the following is a radioactive odorless gas which may require mitigation?

  1. radon
  2. asbestos
  3. formaldehyde
  4. carbon monoxide

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Radon is a naturally occurring, colorless, tasteless, and odorless radioactive gas formed from the natural breakdown of uranium in soil and rock. It can accumulate in basements and lower levels of homes.

The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) identifies radon as a serious environmental hazard. Testing and mitigation systems (such as sub-slab ventilation) are required in certain areas of New Jersey where radon levels are high.

Asbestos is a fibrous mineral linked to lung disease but is not radioactive.

Formaldehyde is a chemical used in building materials but is not radioactive.

Carbon monoxide is a deadly, odorless gas from combustion, but again not radioactive.

Therefore, the correct answer is A (radon).

If a salesperson or broker-salesperson maintains a webpage that is not linked to the webpage of their broker, the licensee's webpage must display the name of the broker as well as the

  1. broker's email address.
  2. broker's telephone number.
  3. address of the broker's main office.
  4. address of the branch office from which the licensee operates.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Under NJREC advertising rules (N.J.A.C. 11:5-6.1), any licensee maintaining an independent website (not directly linked to the broker's official site) must clearly and prominently display:

The name of their employing broker, and

The main office address of the broker.

This ensures the public understands the licensee works under a supervising broker, and prevents misleading advertising. It is not sufficient to only list a branch office or email.

Therefore, the correct answer is C.

NJREC Rules and Regulations, N.J.A.C. 11:5-6.1 (Advertising Requirements).



A landlord may require that a disabled tenant

  1. pay double the usual $500 security deposit.
  2. pay an additional fee for using the swimming pool to cover the added insurance cost.
  3. remove the wheelchair ramp from the apartment upon vacating the unit.
  4. not install grab bars in the tile shower if drilling holes in the tile is required.

Answer(s): C

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.

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

  1. must be compensated by the seller.
  2. is only due compensation if the buyer purchases one of the broker's listings.
  3. is entitled to compensation even if the buyer purchases a property that they locate.
  4. may not show a property to other buyers until the buyer decides if they want to make an offer.

Answer(s): C

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.
