No. 1753

Introduced by Assembly Member Carrillo

An act to amend Section 10150.6 of the Business and Professions Code, relating to real estate.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 1753, as introduced, Carrillo. Real estate broker’s license.

Existing law, the Real Estate Law, authorizes an applicant for a real estate broker’s license with the equivalent of 2 years of experience in general real estate to file a specified written petition with the Department of Real Estate and, if approved by the Real Estate Commissioner, authorizes that applicant to be issued a license upon passing an examination and meeting other requirements.

This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to those provisions.

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:
