A

Any licensed person

Supervision by 'any licensed person' is incorrect because Arizona law specifically requires supervision by a designated broker β€” not just any licensee. A fellow salesperson, even a senior one, cannot legally supervise another salesperson, as only a designated broker holds that supervisory authority.

B

Their designated broker

Correct Answer
C

ADRE directly

The ADRE is a regulatory agency that oversees licensing and compliance but does not directly supervise individual salespersons in their day-to-day real estate activities; the ADRE's role is oversight of the profession as a whole, not hands-on supervision of individual transactions.

D

No supervision required

Stating that no supervision is required is entirely false under Arizona law; operating without designated broker supervision is a serious licensing violation, and salespersons who conduct real estate activities without broker affiliation risk immediate disciplinary action by the ADRE.

Why is this correct?

Under Arizona Revised Statutes Section 32-2155 and the rules of the Arizona Department of Real Estate (ADRE), a licensed real estate salesperson may not conduct real estate activities independently and must be affiliated with and supervised by a designated broker. The designated broker is the individual who holds the broker's license and is responsible for the brokerage's compliance with Arizona real estate law. A salesperson who attempts to practice without a designated broker is in violation of Arizona licensing law and may face license suspension or revocation.
