Under Illinois law, what must a licensee disclose to a client regarding the sponsoring broker's compensation?

Correct Answer

C) The sponsoring broker's compensation policy, including the terms of compensation and any amounts offered to cooperating brokers who represent other parties.

Under the Illinois Real Estate License Act (225 ILCS 454) and its administrative rules, a licensee is required to disclose the sponsoring broker's compensation policy to a client, including the specific terms of compensation and any amounts offered to cooperating brokers representing other parties. This ensures clients understand all financial arrangements that may affect the transaction and the parties involved.

Answer Options
A
Only the licensee's personal commission split with the sponsoring broker, not the overall compensation structure.
B
Compensation information is confidential and may not be discussed with clients during an active transaction.
C
The sponsoring broker's compensation policy, including the terms of compensation and any amounts offered to cooperating brokers who represent other parties.
D
Compensation details must be disclosed only after a transaction closes and the final settlement statement is issued.
