The provisions of the Real Estate Licensing and Registration Act apply to:

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Under 63 P.S. 455.304 (Exemptions from Licensing Requirements), most individuals selling their own property are exempt from real estate licensing requirements. However, a real estate licensee selling their own real estate must comply with disclosure laws and ethical obligations.

If a real estate licensee sells their own property, they must disclose in all advertising that they are a licensed real estate professional to avoid misleading the public.

While a non-licensee selling their own property is not covered under real estate licensing laws, a licensed salesperson must adhere to licensing and disclosure laws.

Why the other answers are incorrect:

Option A (Trustee under Court Order): Court-appointed trustees are exempt from real estate licensing requirements.

Option B (Attorney Representing Clients): Attorneys are permitted to handle real estate transactions as part of their legal practice without a real estate license.

Option D (Licensed Auctioneer): Auctioneers selling real estate are regulated under separate auctioneer licensing laws, not real estate licensing laws.

I've got a good feeling about C. The Act is specifically about real estate licensing, so that makes the most sense to me.

I'm a bit confused on this one. The wording about the court order and the auctioneer is throwing me off. I'll have to re-read the question carefully.

Okay, let me think this through. The Act is about licensing and registration, so it's probably not for attorneys or auctioneers. I'm leaning towards C, the real estate licensee.
