Question & Answer

Review the question and all answer choices

A

Have 1 year of experience

Option A is incorrect because while experience is required (2 years full-time), it's not the sole requirement. The question asks what a broker-in-charge 'must' do, and completing the BIC course and designation are equally mandatory requirements that go beyond just experience.

B

Complete BIC course and be designated by the firm

Correct Answer
C

Own the brokerage firm

Option C is incorrect because owning the brokerage firm is not a requirement for becoming a broker-in-charge. Many BIC positions are held by brokers who are employees rather than owners of the firm.

D

Work full-time only

Option D is incorrect because while the BIC must work full-time for the firm they supervise, this is not the complete requirement. They must also complete the BIC course and be formally designated by the firm.

Why is this correct?

Option B is correct because North Carolina Real Estate Commission rules mandate that a broker-in-charge must complete the BIC course and be formally designated by the brokerage firm to supervise other licensees. This requirement ensures proper training and oversight within the brokerage.
