Question

1. the ______ is the amount that the owner asks for the house.

a) listing price
b) points
c) down payment
d) mortgage

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option A: "listing price" is the price at which a property owner lists (asks for) their house.
• Option B: "points" are fees paid to a lender, not related to the asking price of a house.
• Option C: "down payment" is the initial payment made when buying a house, not the asking price.
• Option D: "mortgage" is a loan for buying a house, not the asking price.

So the correct option is A as it matches the description of the amount the owner asks for the house.

Answer:

A. listing price
