The real estate profession provides an excellent opportunity to operate a small business and secure independence, but it is not without its challenges. Whether you are a broker, associate broker, or a salesperson, your conduct is governed by a complex web of federal and state laws that must be followed if you are to protect your license, your hard earned commission, and avoid litigation. Without proper knowledge of rules and regulations, you may risk an important deal falling through the cracks, or worse — you may find yourself involved in a serious lawsuit.
