Connecticut License Law
A Connecticut broker's office policy states that all salespersons must use the brokerage's standard purchase contract form. A salesperson drafts a custom contract at a client's request. This may:
ABe done freely since the client specifically requested it
BViolate the office policy and constitute unauthorized practice of law if the salesperson creates custom legal terms beyond filling in standard blanks✓ Correct
CBe acceptable as long as the broker approves after the fact
DAlways be done since Connecticut salespersons may draft any contract
Explanation
Real estate licensees are authorized to complete standardized contract forms. Drafting custom legal provisions goes beyond that authority and may constitute the unauthorized practice of law. Violating office policy also subjects the salesperson to disciplinary action by the broker.
