The buyer of an industrial complex wants the broker to place the earnest money in an interest bearing account. The broker does this, clearly identifying all parties who are to receive the interest and the date the earned interest is to be disbursed. With only the verbal consent of the buyer, he places the money in an insured account in a depository in Florida. When the time comes to disburse the account, the broker will write a check to the buyer for the interest as the buyer agreed. Which statement describing this situation applies?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

In this situation, the statement that would best apply would be that the broker does not have the right to ever use an interest-bearing account under Florida Real Estate laws. Since Florida Real Estate laws specifically prohibit a broker from placing a clients money in an interest account then the broker in this scenario is breaking the law and can have his real estate license taken away as well as being fined.
