Associate Broker Linda has been working under Principal Broker David for three years. David's license is revoked by the UDRE due to fraud. Linda has active listings and pending transactions. Under Utah Code Ann. § 61-2f, what is the immediate effect on Linda's ability to continue practicing real estate?

Correct Answer

C) Linda must immediately cease all licensed real estate activities until she affiliates with a new Principal Broker

Under Utah Code Ann. § 61-2f, an Associate Broker — despite holding a full broker-level license — must be affiliated with and working under a Principal Broker in order to actively practice real estate. When the Principal Broker's license is revoked, the Associate Broker loses the required supervisory structure and must immediately cease all licensed activities. Linda cannot practice independently; she must affiliate with a new, active Principal Broker before resuming any real estate activities. Active listings and pending transactions must be handled through the new brokerage affiliation.

Answer Options
A
Linda may continue working independently for 90 days to allow her time to find a new Principal Broker
B
Linda's Associate Broker license is automatically revoked along with David's Principal Broker license
C
Linda must immediately cease all licensed real estate activities until she affiliates with a new Principal Broker
D
Linda may continue working because her Associate Broker license is independent of David's license status
