Real Estate Continuing Education Practice Test

The unlicensed personal assistant is unable to negotiate commission or referral fees because they do not hold the necessary licenses or qualifications required by regulatory bodies in real estate. This type of assistant typically performs administrative tasks and supports licensed agents but lacks the legal authority to engage in activities that involve financial negotiations, such as setting or discussing commission rates. Licensed personnel, like agents or licensed assistants, are trained and authorized to handle these financial matters, while office administrators typically focus on organizational roles inside the office rather than engaging in transactional negotiations. Thus, the unlicensed personal assistant is restricted from these activities, adhering to the regulations that govern real estate practice.
