To work as a salesperson under another broker, what must a licensed broker do?

Act only as a salesperson
Apply to take the salesperson's exam
Operate under their own broker's license
Sell the properties under their own name

The correct answer is: Act only as a salesperson

A licensed broker working as a salesperson under another broker must act only as a salesperson. This means that the broker must operate under the authority and license of the broker they are associated with, rather than trying to operate independently. The relationship established when a licensed broker chooses to work under another broker indicates that they are representing the interests of that broker and do not have the autonomy typically associated with a broker's license. In this context, the requirements provide clarity on the roles and responsibilities in a brokerage setup, ensuring that all legal and operational frameworks are adhered to within California's real estate practices. The other options either suggest independence that is not aligned with the role of a salesperson working under another broker or misinterpret the process related to licensing and examination.
