Maryland Real Estate Board
The Maryland Real Estate Board does not regulate real estate licensees. This is a common misconception as many states use 'Board' terminology. Maryland specifically uses 'Commission' for its regulatory body, not 'Board'. The Board may have advisory functions, but lacks the regulatory authority over licensees that the Commission possesses.
Maryland Real Estate Commission
Maryland Department of Commerce
The Maryland Real Estate Board does not exist as the regulatory body in Maryland. Many states use 'Board' terminology, but Maryland specifically uses 'Commission' for this function.
Maryland Real Estate Association
The Maryland Real Estate Association is likely a voluntary professional organization that provides networking, education, and advocacy for real estate professionals, but it does not have regulatory authority.
Why is this correct?
The Maryland Real Estate Commission is the correct regulatory body because it is specifically established by state law to oversee real estate licensees, set licensing requirements, enforce regulations, and handle disciplinary actions in Maryland.
