Definition: A person assisting a real estate professional with administrative or other assigned work. Permitted duties depend on whether the assistant holds an appropriate active license.
Example
An unlicensed assistant schedules appointments while licensed personnel handle activities requiring a license.
Keep the distinction clear
A job title does not create a licensing exemption. Calling someone an assistant does not authorize them to negotiate or perform other regulated brokerage services.
