What actions can the commission take regarding an application?

The commission has a range of actions it can take regarding an application, including the authority to deny an application or impose disciplinary actions. This means that if an applicant does not meet the necessary qualifications, has a background that raises concerns, or violates regulations, the commission can choose to deny their application. Additionally, the commission can impose disciplinary actions, which may include fines or suspensions for existing license holders who fail to adhere to the established rules and standards.

This multifaceted approach ensures that the commission maintains control over the quality and integrity of real estate practice within its jurisdiction. Having the ability to deny applications or impose disciplinary actions serves as a critical mechanism for protecting consumers and ensuring that only qualified individuals can operate in the real estate market.
