Q.2. I am a licensed broker. May I maintain an assumed name and office in one county and use my home located in a different county as my main office address? |
| |
| You can use your home office as your main office address and apply for a branch office license for any other location. If you use a different name for your second office, you will need to submit notification to the Commission of the assumed name or dba. The Commission considers a "branch office" as a place where the licensee meets with clients and customers to transact business. Each branch office must be licensed. |

Q.3. Is there a limit on the number of salespersons who can work for one broker? |
| |
| The provisions of the Real Estate License Act and the Rules of the Commission have no formal limits on the number of salespersons that a broker can sponsor. Note, however, that a sponsoring broker is responsible for ALL the brokerage activities of the salespersons sponsored by the broker. The law requires the broker to exercise appropriate supervision of those activities. Failure to do so could be a basis for disciplinary action against the broker's license. A broker is equally responsible for all salespersons sponsored by licensed corporations or LLCs for which the broker is the designated officer or designated manager.
