Under direct instruction of the licensee, an unlicensed personal assistant may

• A. Follow up on loan commitments, write and place advertisements, and obtain public information
• B. Draft contracts and negotiate terms
• C. Attend closings and sign documents
• D. Provide legal advice to clients

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is what unlicensed personal assistants можуть do under the licensee’s supervision. They’re allowed to handle administrative tasks that support real estate work, as long as they’re under direct instruction and do not exercise licensed judgment.

So, following up on loan commitments, writing and placing advertisements, and obtaining public information are examples of those permissible tasks. They help move transactions along but don’t require the unlicensed person to draft legal documents, negotiate terms, or provide professional legal or real estate advice.

In contrast, activities like drafting contracts or negotiating terms, attending closings and signing documents, or giving legal advice require a licensed real estate professional. Those duties involve professional judgment and legal responsibilities that an unlicensed assistant cannot perform.
