Text

Each officer of a corporation through whom it is licensed to act as a real estate broker need not be a licensed real estate broker, but if not, is authorized only to act as such for and on behalf of the corporation as an officer. This does not preclude a designated corporate officer who has a separate individual license from conducting licensed activity for another entity if the entity for which he or she acts is clearly disclosed and apparent
to any member of the public using his or her services outside the corporation.
When a corporation wishes to act as a real estate broker, the corporation shall be licensed by the department through qualified broker-officers, who have either passed the broker license examination and are now qualified to obtain a broker license, or who are currently licensed as real estate brokers. An officer of a corporation through whom it is licensed to act need not maintain an individual broker’s license, but is otherwise subject to all duties and responsibilities of a licensed broker.
