Tom holds an active Kansas salesperson license sponsored by Broker Allen. Tom decides to leave Allen's firm and join Broker Chen's company. Under Kansas law, which of the following correctly describes the license transfer process?

Correct Answer

A) Tom's license transfer requires both the release by Broker Allen and the sponsorship acceptance by Broker Chen, with notification to KREC

Under the Kansas Real Estate Brokers' and Salespersons' License Act, a salesperson's license is held under the sponsorship of a specific broker. Transferring to a new broker requires the releasing broker's action (or the salesperson's written notice of termination), the new sponsoring broker's acceptance, and proper notification to KREC. The salesperson may not practice under the new broker until the transfer is properly completed and recognized by KREC.

Answer Options
A
Tom's license transfer requires both the release by Broker Allen and the sponsorship acceptance by Broker Chen, with notification to KREC
B
Tom must surrender his license to KREC, reapply as a new salesperson, and retake the state examination
C
Tom's license automatically transfers to Broker Chen once Tom notifies KREC in writing of the change
D
Tom may begin working for Broker Chen immediately upon verbal agreement and submit transfer paperwork within 30 days
