Kevin holds an active Oregon Broker license affiliated with Sunrise Realty. He decides to take a break from real estate and does not renew his license when it expires. Two years later, Kevin wants to return to practice. Under Oregon law, which statement accurately describes Kevin's situation?

Correct Answer

D) Kevin may apply to reinstate his license but may be required to complete additional education depending on how long the license has been inactive

Under ORS Chapter 696 and Oregon Administrative Rules, a licensee whose license has expired may apply for reinstatement. The requirements depend on the length of the lapse. Oregon may require completion of additional continuing education or other conditions for reinstatement, but the process differs from initial licensure and does not automatically require retaking the full pre-license course or exam for shorter lapses.

Answer Options
A
Kevin must retake the full 150-hour pre-license course and the licensing examination before reapplying
B
Kevin's license is permanently revoked after two years of inactivity and he must start the licensing process from the beginning
C
Kevin may reactivate his expired license by paying a reinstatement fee without any additional requirements
D
Kevin may apply to reinstate his license but may be required to complete additional education depending on how long the license has been inactive
