If you goofed, you goofed. But the meaning is clear. If you want to start playing word games with me and quibbling over definitions, go ahead and waste your time.[/quote]
It’s not a “waste of time,” drboom. A “licensee” is simply that, a licensee. A RE licensee possessing a CA Salesperson or Broker License in CA IN NO WAY MEANS THEIR LICENSE IS ACTIVE. Many, many CA lawyers and CPA’s are LICENSED CA RE BROKERS because they were able to sit for the “CA RE Broker’s License Exam” without the necessary 4 years CONCURRENT experience as a RE Salesperson. MANY CA attorneys are licensees (RE Brokers) themselves with NO RE SALESPERSON EXPERIENCE WHATSOEVER! MANY RE licensees work in various RE or other capacities such as: property manager, escrow officer, loan officer, title officer, bankruptcy trustee, traveling notary, court clerk, paralegal (such as myself), etc. “Licensees,” active or inactive, hail from ALL WALKS OF LIFE. WE ARE ALL FREE TO HANG OUR LICENSES (or set up “shop” if we are a broker) TOMORROW.
If YOU are enamored of this profession, drboom, YOU ARE FREE to GO THRU THE PROCEDURES to obtain your OWN license!
