Who can list or sell real estate for consideration without a valid license?

In Indiana real estate law, certain individuals are exempt from the requirement to hold a real estate license when they engage in activities related to the listing or selling of real estate. These exemptions often apply to specific scenarios, such as when someone is selling their own property, acting under a power of attorney, or situations where the property is being managed without a fee or commission involved.

This means that only those who fit into these defined categories can legally list or sell real estate for consideration without a license. Therefore, individuals who do not meet these exemptions, such as those who simply have signed agreements with licensed agents or are in the process of applying for their licenses, would be operating outside the law if they engage in real estate transactions without an active license. Additionally, property management for family members typically requires licensure unless specific criteria are met, which does not provide a blanket exemption.

Understanding these exemptions is crucial for compliance with Indiana real estate regulations and ensuring that all real estate transactions are conducted legally.
