Broker Linda operates a real estate office in Topeka. She wants to hire Kevin, who holds a valid real estate license from Missouri, to work as a salesperson in her Kansas office. Kevin has not taken the Kansas licensing examination. Under Kansas law, which of the following best describes Kevin's options?

Correct Answer

B) Kevin must apply for a Kansas license, but KREC may waive the pre-license education requirement based on his Missouri license

Kansas has reciprocity agreements with certain states that allow applicants holding a license in good standing from a qualifying state to apply for a Kansas license with reduced requirements — typically waiving the pre-license education requirement while still requiring passage of the Kansas state exam. Kevin would need to apply through KREC and pass the Kansas examination, but the 30-hour pre-license education may be waived based on his Missouri license. The exact terms depend on KREC's current reciprocity agreements.

Answer Options
A
Kevin may work immediately under Linda's supervision because Missouri and Kansas have a full reciprocal license agreement
B
Kevin must apply for a Kansas license, but KREC may waive the pre-license education requirement based on his Missouri license
C
Kevin must complete all Kansas requirements from scratch, including 30 hours of pre-license education and passing the Kansas exam
D
Kevin may work on a 90-day provisional basis while his Kansas application is pending with KREC
