Under Georgia license law, which of the following statements about licensed and unlicensed activity is NOT correct?

Correct Answer

C) An unlicensed assistant may negotiate the price or terms of a real estate transaction provided the supervising broker reviews all paperwork before closing.

Negotiating price or terms of a real estate transaction is a brokerage act as defined in O.C.G.A. § 43-40-1 and requires a real estate license. This activity cannot be delegated to an unlicensed assistant under any circumstances, even with broker review. O.C.G.A. § 43-40-29 prohibits unlicensed persons from performing brokerage acts for compensation, and broker supervision does not cure the violation.

Answer Options
A
Community association management performed for compensation is a regulated activity that requires a license and is distinct from ordinary clerical support.
B
An associate broker holds a broker-level license but operates under the supervision of another broker rather than serving as the qualifying broker of an independent firm.
C
An unlicensed assistant may negotiate the price or terms of a real estate transaction provided the supervising broker reviews all paperwork before closing.
D
A broker who pays compensation for brokerage activity to an unlicensed person violates Georgia license law, regardless of the parties' private agreement.
