A property manager in Georgia refuses to make reasonable accommodations for a tenant with a disability. Upon learning of this situation, what action should the supervising broker take?

Correct Answer

B) Investigate the matter promptly and take corrective action to ensure compliance

Under BRRETA (O.C.G.A. § 43-40-18), supervising brokers have an affirmative duty to supervise affiliated licensees and ensure lawful conduct. When a broker becomes aware of a potential fair housing violation, the broker's supervisory obligation requires prompt investigation and corrective action to bring the brokerage into compliance and mitigate harm. Failure to act could expose the broker to disciplinary action for inadequate supervision.

Answer Options
A
Document the incident and address it at the next scheduled compliance review
B
Investigate the matter promptly and take corrective action to ensure compliance
C
Advise the property manager to consult an attorney before responding to the tenant
D
File a report with the Georgia Real Estate Commission before contacting the tenant
