Robert is a licensed Mississippi real estate broker who recently lost his broker license due to a disciplinary action by the MREC. He still wants to remain active in real estate and asks whether he can work as a salesperson under another broker while his broker license is revoked. Under Mississippi license law, which statement is most accurate?

Correct Answer

B) Robert cannot hold any Mississippi real estate license while his broker license is under a revocation order from the MREC

Under Mississippi license law and MREC disciplinary authority (Miss. Code Ann. §73-35-21), a revocation order issued by the MREC prohibits the individual from holding any real estate license in Mississippi during the revocation period. A person cannot circumvent a broker license revocation by simply applying for a salesperson license, as the disciplinary action applies to the individual's ability to hold any Mississippi real estate license.

Answer Options
A
Robert may immediately apply for a salesperson license and begin working under another broker, as the two license types are independent
B
Robert cannot hold any Mississippi real estate license while his broker license is under a revocation order from the MREC
C
Robert may work as an unlicensed assistant for another broker during the revocation period without violating license law
D
Robert must wait exactly one year after the revocation before applying for any Mississippi real estate license
