§16-99-2

Definitions

“Broker-in-charge” redefined to allow a broker-in-charge to be appointed to more than one branch office. The change will provide brokerages with more flexibility in the management of real estate licensees and reflects the commission’s interpretation of broker-in-charge in its Laws and Rules Review Committee meeting November 14, 2001.
