Oklahoma Property Management
Practice Questions & Answers (2026)

Property management questions on the Oklahoma exam cover both the practical aspects of managing rental properties and the landlord-tenant law specific to Oklahoma. The Oklahoma Real Estate Commission (OREC) tests security deposit limits, required notice periods for entry and termination, habitability standards, and the property manager's fiduciary duties. Oklahoma's landlord-tenant law has specific provisions — including notice requirements and tenant protections — that differ from what national study materials cover. These questions often involve scenarios where a property manager must navigate competing obligations to the owner-client and the tenant.

B.Act in the best interest of the property owner (principal)
C.Maintain cordial relationships with all tenants
D.Minimize maintenance expenses at all costs

A property manager is an agent of the property owner (the principal). The manager's primary fiduciary duty is to act in the owner's best interest, which includes maximizing the property's value and income while properly maintaining the asset.

A.Lease agreement between tenant and property owner
B.Agency contract between the property owner and the managing broker
C.Maintenance contract with a service company

A property management agreement is a written agency contract between the property owner (principal) and the property management company (agent/broker). It defines the scope of management, fees, authority, and duration of the engagement.

Q4. Under the Oklahoma Residential Landlord and Tenant Act, a landlord's failure to maintain the premises in a habitable condition may allow the tenant to:

A.Terminate the lease immediately without notice
B.Withhold rent after proper notice and remedy opportunity
C.Sue the landlord only in federal court
D.Unilaterally reduce rent by 50% without legal recourse

Explanation

Oklahoma's RLTA allows tenants to withhold rent or terminate the lease if the landlord fails to maintain habitable conditions after the tenant provides proper written notice and the landlord fails to remedy the issue within a reasonable time (typically 14 days).

Q5. A gross lease structure means the tenant pays:

A.Base rent plus all operating expenses
B.A flat rent while the landlord pays operating expenses
C.Only utility costs with no base rent
D.Rent based on a percentage of gross sales

Explanation

In a gross lease (also called a full-service lease), the tenant pays a flat rent and the landlord is responsible for most or all operating expenses including taxes, insurance, and maintenance. This is common in residential rentals.

Q6. A net lease requires the tenant to pay:

A.Only base rent with all expenses covered by the landlord
B.Base rent plus some or all property expenses such as taxes, insurance, and maintenance
C.A percentage of net income as rent
D.Rent based on the landlord's net income from the property

Explanation

In a net lease, the tenant pays base rent plus some or all property expenses. A triple-net (NNN) lease requires the tenant to pay base rent, property taxes, insurance, and maintenance — transferring most operating costs to the tenant.

A.Commingling
B.Conversion

Commingling is the illegal mixing of client or owner funds with the property manager's personal or business funds. All owner funds must be kept in separate trust accounts. Conversion is the even more serious act of actually using those funds for personal purposes.

Property management for compensation on behalf of others constitutes real estate brokerage in Oklahoma, requiring a broker's license or affiliation with a licensed broker. There is no exemption based on the number of properties managed.
