Under what condition can a licensee be fined by the Maine Real Estate Commission?

If they fail to renew their license
If they do not attend required meetings
If they violate any part of the real estate law
If they sell a property without a license

The correct answer is: If they violate any part of the real estate law

A licensee can be fined by the Maine Real Estate Commission when they violate any part of the real estate law. This includes a broad range of actions that are considered unlawful within the context of real estate practices. Violations can range from misrepresentation and fraud to failure to adhere to the ethical standards and policies established by the Commission. The purpose of enforcing these laws is to ensure fair practice in the real estate market and protect the interests of the public. Other choices involve actions that may lead to disciplinary actions or other consequences, but specifically, violating real estate laws directly puts the licensee at risk for fines and other penalties as mandated by the Commission. A failure to renew a license or not attending required meetings might result in a different type of administrative action, and selling property without a license would constitute an illegal act, likely leading to more severe penalties than fines alone.
