Developers are responsible for acquiring land, obtaining financing, and overseeing the construction or renovation of buildings. They typically work on large-scale projects and collaborate with other professionals such as architects and contractors.

    • Accession

    • Succession

    • Escheat

    • Avulsion

    Correct Answer
    A. Succession
    Explanation
    Succession is the correct answer because when someone dies without a will, their property is distributed to their heirs according to the laws of intestate succession. As the nephew/niece of the deceased, you would be considered an heir and would therefore inherit the real estate. Accession refers to the acquisition of property through the addition of improvements or natural growth, which is not applicable in this scenario. Escheat occurs when a person dies without any known heirs and their property reverts to the state, which is also not applicable here. Avulsion refers to the sudden removal of land by natural forces, which is unrelated to inheriting property.

    • Every 2 years

    The correct answer is 150 liters/person/day. This is the minimum water supply requirement needed to provide the average daily demand to all homeowners. It ensures that each person has enough water for their daily needs, including drinking, cooking, cleaning, and sanitation. Providing less than 150 liters/person/day may lead to water shortages and inadequate access to clean water for basic needs. On the other hand, supplying more than 150 liters/person/day may result in wastage of water resources. Therefore, 150 liters/person/day strikes a balance between meeting the demand and conserving water.

Therefore, the salesperson should focus on promoting the project they are involved with and provide compelling reasons for the buyer to choose that particular project.
