Section 43-23-12 - Broker's place of business - License of salesperson1. Every individual, partnership, association, corporation, or limited liability company licensed as a real estate broker is required to have and maintain a definite place of business within this state, for the transaction of real estate business, except as provided in section 43-23-10. The license as broker and the license of each real estate salesperson licensed under that broker must be prominently displayed in said office or the licensee's name and license number listed on the broker's website. The place of business must be designated in the license, and a license issued under the authority of this chapter may not authorize the licensee to transact business under any other broker. In case of removal from the designated broker, the licensee shall make application to the commission before the removal or within five days after the removal, designating the new location of such office, whereupon the commission immediately shall issue a new license for the new location for the unexpired period. The broker's home may qualify as the place of business.2. All licenses issued to real estate salespersons must designate the broker of the salespersons. Prompt notice in writing, within five days, must be given to the commission by any real estate salesperson of a change of broker, and of the name of the licensed broker into whose supervision the salesperson is about to enter, and a new license must be issued by the commission to the salesperson for the unexpired term of the original license, upon the return to the commission of the license previously issued. The change of broker by any licensed real estate salesperson, without notice to the commission, automatically cancels that person's license. Upon termination of a real estate salesperson's supervision by a broker, the broker immediately shall notify the commission in writing. It is unlawful for any real estate salesperson to perform any of the acts contemplated by this chapter either directly or indirectly after that person's supervision by a broker has been terminated, until the license has been reissued by the commission to a new broker.Amended by S.L. 2021 , ch. 316( HB 1258 ), § 10, eff. 8/1/2021.
