Question & Answer
Review the question and all answer choices
Pennsylvania Real Estate Board
The Pennsylvania Real Estate Board is incorrect because Pennsylvania does not use a 'Board' structure for real estate regulation. While some states use the term 'Board,' Pennsylvania specifically uses 'Commission' for this regulatory function.
Pennsylvania Real Estate Commission
Pennsylvania Department of Real Estate
The Pennsylvania Department of Real Estate is incorrect because Pennsylvania does not have a department specifically named 'Department of Real Estate.' Real estate regulation in Pennsylvania falls under the Department of State, not a separate department.
Pennsylvania Association of REALTORS
The Pennsylvania Association of REALTORS is incorrect because this is a private trade organization, not a governmental regulatory body. While REALTOR associations provide education and advocacy, they do not have regulatory authority over licensees.
Why is this correct?
The Pennsylvania Real Estate Commission is the correct answer because it is the specific state agency designated by Pennsylvania law to regulate real estate licensees. It operates under the Department of State and has the authority to set licensing requirements, enforce regulations, and take disciplinary action against licensees.
