A Kansas licensee whose license has expired continues to perform real estate activities during the expired period. Which statement is most accurate?

Correct Answer

B) The licensee is engaging in unlicensed practice and is subject to KREC penalties

Under Kansas law, performing real estate activities with an expired license constitutes unlicensed practice and subjects the individual to KREC disciplinary action. While Kansas does allow reinstatement of an expired license within a specified window without requiring full re-examination, the reinstatement period only allows the licensee to restore their license — it does not authorize continued practice during the expired period. Any real estate activity conducted while the license is expired is unlicensed practice regardless of eligibility for reinstatement.
