Chen has just passed the Missouri real estate licensing exam and wants to begin practicing immediately. He has not yet affiliated with a sponsoring broker. Under Missouri law, which of the following actions may Chen legally take while unaffiliated?

Correct Answer

C) None — Chen may not perform any real estate activities until his license is issued to a sponsoring broker

Under RSMo Chapter 339, a Missouri salesperson may not perform any real estate activities until their license has been issued to a sponsoring broker. Passing the exam grants eligibility to apply for a license, but the license itself is not effective until it is affiliated with and issued to a sponsoring broker. Chen has no legal authority to show properties, negotiate agreements, or advertise his services as a licensee until this affiliation is established.

Answer Options
A
Show properties to prospective buyers as long as he discloses that he is not yet affiliated with a broker
B
Negotiate a listing agreement on behalf of a seller who is a personal friend
C
None — Chen may not perform any real estate activities until his license is issued to a sponsoring broker
D
Advertise his services as a newly licensed agent while he searches for a sponsoring broker
