Angela holds an active Alabama salesperson license. She recently moved to Georgia and obtained a Georgia real estate license. Angela wants to continue practicing real estate in Alabama without maintaining a physical office there. Under Alabama license law, which of the following best describes how Angela can legally conduct Alabama real estate transactions?

Correct Answer

B) Angela must maintain an active Alabama license affiliated with an Alabama-licensed broker to legally conduct Alabama transactions.

Under Alabama license law (Code of Alabama §34-27-1 et seq.), any person conducting real estate activities in Alabama must hold an active Alabama license affiliated with an Alabama-licensed broker. Out-of-state licensure does not substitute for an Alabama license. Angela must maintain her active Alabama salesperson license under an Alabama broker's supervision to legally conduct Alabama real estate transactions, regardless of her Georgia license status.

A

Angela must maintain an active Alabama license affiliated with an Alabama-licensed broker to legally conduct Alabama transactions.
C
Angela can practice in Alabama as an independent contractor without broker affiliation since she holds an out-of-state license.
