What’s New at the Idaho Real Estate Commission

The Real Estatement Vol. 39, No. 1 January 2018

Comments From the Commission ChairWhat is in your

Real Estate Brain?

The holidays are over and the bills for all of those recent “in-vestments” in your family and friends is coming due . So what plans do you have that will

make 2018 the best Real Estate Year ever?Perhaps you think that you did not receive all of the gifts you thought you should have received? Maybe there is just a bit of hope that there would have been just one more gift… What could that gift be? Here is an idea: A gift you can give yourself (as well as your customers and clients) would be improving yourself by gaining more education this year . Why? By improving your real estate skills you will become a better agent, be able to provide more knowl-edge to your BUYERS and SELLERS, as well as improv-ing your longevity in the real estate industry .The FACT is… Real Estate Is Changing . Are you pre-pared for change?Perhaps you like to work with BUYERS . You could set the goal to obtain the ABR® (Accredited Buyers Representa-tive) designation . Maybe you work with seniors . You could expand your horizon and achieve the SRES® (Senior Real Estate Specialist) . There are so many classes, courses and designations that you could take and earn to expand your real estate knowledge further! (My CRS friends would want me to put in a plug for the Certified Residential Spe-cialist designation .)I also think it would be beneficial for each licensee to get their brokers license . Why? Gaining a better understanding of the operation of a brokerage and learning all of the things that need to be done for each real estate transaction, will help you to do a better job with the day to day work you do in real estate .To assist you in your learning process, you might encour-age your broker, office, or even your local REALTOR® Association to sponsor classes on topics like… risk reduc-tion, how to stay out of trouble with claims on your E & O insurance, safety, or possibly have the Chief Investigator

Michael J. JohnstonCommission Chair

It will take me some time and a little bit of money, but in the end it will be well worth it . I’ve made the commitment to become a better real estate practitioner, have you? So what exactly are you going to do?Send me an email telling me about yourself, your time and experiences in real estate, as well as what you plan to do to expand your Real Estate brain in 2018 .

IREC’S Little Black Book

IREC’s little black book…you know the one, we call it the “li-cense law book .” It is mailed out to all licensees every July . This year’s book is black with gold print . So what is in this lit-tle black book? License LawMost of you know it contains the Idaho Real Estate Li-cense Law . Each year that we have changes to the law, the book is updated with those changes in July . All additions to the license law are underlined and all deletions are struck through. Just by flipping through the book you can easily see the current changes . But what else is in the book? We also have IREC’s admin-istrative rules, and in the back, the guidelines . Administrative RulesBecause the law normally does not contain all details, the Commission must interpret the Legislature’s intent and de-velop a method to implement the program through Rules . Rulemaking is the law-making power of the Commission but rules must be also adopted by the legislature . Rules carry the force and effect of law. You will find licensing fees, approved topics for continuing education, and details on mandatory Errors & Omissions Insurance within our rules .GuidelinesWondering what guidelines really are? The license law is sometimes difficult to understand. Guidelines are the Commissioners’ explanation and guidance of the license law and rules in plain language . They are a description of procedures, but do not have the force or effect of law . If you have a question on how IREC is interpreting the li-cense law, the guidelines are a great place to look . They often include examples to help clarify the license law . For example, guideline #12 is about Internet and Social Media Advertising . There are also guidelines on “Coming Soon” listings, Disputed Earnest Money, and 19 other topics.

1 . Cancellation or Withdrawal of Listings2 . Brokering Idaho Property Requires an Idaho Real-

Estate License3 . Regular Employee Status Determination4 . Agency Disclosure Brochure (“THE BLUE BRO-

CHURE”) Record Keeping Requirements5 . Disclosure of Transaction Fees - When Required6 . Offering Guarantees7 . Guidelines for "Suspended" Licensees8 . “Coming Soon” Listings9. Terms Under Which Rental or Lease Fees May be

Split with Non licensed Persons10 . Splitting Fees with Non licensed Persons Prohibited12 . Internet and Social Media Advertising13 . Advertising14 . Disputed Earnest Money15 . Establishing Real Estate Trust Accounts16. Presentation of Multiple Offers by the Listing Agent17. Use of Unlicensed Assistants and Office Staff 18. Dealer In Options20. Joint Guideline on Broker Price Options (BPOs) 22 . Auctioneers of Real Estate23 . Mandatory Duty of the Brokerage "To be Available" to Receive and Present all Written Offeres and Counteroffers24 . Licensees' Personal Transactions to be Conducted Through The Broker With Whom He is Licensed25 . Short Sale Guidance

You don’t carry your little black book around? The good news is all of those guidelines can be found on the mobile friendly IREC website at www .irec .idaho .gov . You can find them in the copy of the License Laws and Rules booklet on the top right side of the page under “What’s New”. Or for just the guidelines, go to the “Library” tab, Publications, and Guidelines . This page lists all of the guideline topics and contains links to the actual guidelines . These guidelines are reviewed annually by the Commis-sioners for accuracy with actual industry and Commission practice. Please give the IREC office a call if you have questions on any of these guidelines or on anything else in our Little Black Book .

We are so pleased to welcome a new member to the Com-mission . You may recall in July 2016 the license law was changed to add a fifth commissioner. The additional com-missioner was legislated to be “a member of the public from the state at large with an interest in the rights of consum-ers of real estate services”. This past July, Governor Otter appointed Martin Espil to that seat (see page 4) . Welcome Martin!



We’d like to warmly welcome Saychelle to our team . Saychelle is an Idaho native and moved to Boise in 2000 . She received a B .A . in American History from Boise State Uni-versity and also minored in Po-litical Science and Fine Art . As a former real estate agent, she is excited to join the team at the Idaho Real Estate Commission . In her downtime, you can find her around a campfire, soaking

in a hot spring, crafting, or hosting events for friends and family .

Saychelle, Welcome to the Team!

Martin Espil was raised on a sheep/cattle and hay ranch in NE California and NW Nevada des-ert. He graduated from Oregon State University at La Grande, OR with a degree in Rangeland Resource Management in 2001 . He has worked for the Bureau of Land Management as a Range-land Management Specialist for 17 years while living in North-west Colorado (Craig), Eastern Oregon (Vale/Ontario) and now works and lives in Boise Idaho . He has bought, sold and rented

properties in each of these areas and enjoys the intricacies and details of the real estate industry in each state . In his non-work time, he enjoys running, travel, and the great beer, cider and wines of our Treasure Valley area!

Evaluations - A Necessary Evil or Valuable Info?

The question often comes up, “Why does the Real Estate Commission waste the student’s time by requiring them to fill out evaluations?” The answer is the Real Estate Commission and the Education Council consider the evalua-tions to be a valuable tool . The

goal of the Education Council is to provide licensees with the highest quality of classes presented by knowledgeable instructors! The Education Council and the Enforcement Department at the Real Estate Commission are continu-ally auditing classes and instructors throughout our great State . Due to the size of our state and vast distances from the Commission office to some of these offerings, it is im-possible for the Commission to monitor every class . This is where the evaluation forms come into play . This is really the best opportunity for the licensees or students to let us know if we got things right. Our goal is to provide licensees with the best product possible! Let’s take a look at the different types of feedback we are trying to get from these forms . First, we want to make sure that the students are receiving valuable information and in a format that works for them . We know that licensees are very busy and we want to respect your time . We want to know, did you enjoy the class? Did the material help your understanding of the topic? Did the handouts help?Next, we’d like to know how our instructors and providers are doing . Were the materials presented in a clear and orga-nized manner? Did the instructor fully understand the mate-rial? And were they able to interact with the class? Did they encourage class participation? Was the appropriate amount of time allotted for the material covered? Was the environ-ment conducive to learning?In other words, was this class worth the time and money you invested in it? The Education Council pays close at-tention to the data you provide. Did you know that certified instructors have to maintain a 4 .0 rating or higher? This rating comes directly from the information you provide via the evaluation form . We have revised the form to make it quicker and easier to fill out. We hope the new format will bring better and more meaningful responses . Please don’t just rush through the form . Your written responses are the most important part of this process . We really want to know what worked for you and equally important, what didn’t . This will allow the Education Council to continue to “Raise the Bar’ on the quality of our classes and instructors . We truly value your input and we hope that you will continue to provide valu-able comments and opinions!

Preparation is Key to Choice

The real estate industry is full of deadlines . From contracts to deposit requirements to home inspections and more . Even for those conscious of the looming deadlines, it can be easy to fall into the trap of waiting until the very last minute to complete required education for renewal or to obtain your errors and omissions insurance . However, it is important to recognize that waiting until the last minute can severely limit your choices . So how can preparation be the key to choice? Take CE for example . • Options – The education lookup feature on our website

is a great tool to help you locate classes . Providers are required to put the course on the schedule a minimum of 5 business days prior to the class start date, but many providers have their schedule posted far in advance . If you have a particular topic that interests you, you can narrow down your search by typing in a few key words .In an ordinary month, there are between 150-200 cer-tified course offerings for real estate continuing educa-tion credit in Idaho . During the last week of the month, the available choices usually drop to less than 75 . If you prefer to take a live course (historically roughly

70% of licensees do), often less than 20% of the class-es available during the last week of the month are live course offerings .

• Flexibility - Planning your schedule allows you the flexibility to take your education in smaller increments. Thus spending less time away from your business, your clients and customers, and transactions . CE classes can be taken in as small as 2 hour increments, so taking your education early allows you the flexibility to space it out to better fit your busy schedule.

• Opportunity – Freeing up your time at the end of the month keeps the door open to opportunities . Waiting until the last minute to take your CE might put you in a position of having to choose between working a trans-action or your real estate education . Alternatively, you may find yourself having to turn down a new customer or client .

• Retention - Spacing out your education helps you to re-tain and process the information that you are learning . Education and science journals are filled with studies touting the benefits of gapped learning (learning that is spaced out over time) over massed learning (learning that is clumped up into large chunks) . Learning new tricks and tips in real estate classes is only beneficial if you are able to retain them long enough to implement them into your daily practice . Gapped learning allows you to get more bang for your educational buck .

Preparation can impact your long term success because it allows you to be more strategic in your educational choic-es . There are lots of wonderful paths to education that you might choose to take . Specialty classes come up on the schedule infrequently, so advance planning is required .As Alexander Graham Bell put it, “before anything else, preparation is the key to success .”

Real Estate Education Needs YOU!Interested in becoming a certified instructor?

The Idaho Real Estate Commission’s Education Council is looking for passionate individuals who want to make a difference to teach our Commission-developed courses . Commission-developed courses include sales and broker prelicense, post license and Commission Core courses .

One of the requirements to become a certified instructor is attendance at the annual Instructor Development Work-shop (IDW) . In addition to receiving technical instruc-

tion on how to be a better instructor, IDW offers certified instructors an opportunity to observe the new Core class .The 2018 IDW is scheduled for May 8-9, so keep your

calendar clear and watch the website for additional details to follow .

5 Year Licensing Statistics



As of July 1, 2017 there is a change to your Idaho REALTORS® Purchase and Sale Agreement (RE-21) forms which has caused confusion .

The good news is this change gives your buyer flexibility as to when earnest money is due . In our imperfect world, there are times when earnest money is not available at the time the offer is written . Maybe the client needs to transfer funds from one account to another or they need to mail a check .

The change in Line 22 of the Purchase and Sale Agreement gives two options to disclose to the seller how the earnest money will be handled;

• The agent has collected earnest from the buyer and will be delivered to the broker immediately; which is the standard .

• The buyer will deliver the earnest money at a later date .

Line 23 has an option to tell how many business days from acceptance the earnest money will be delivered by the buy-er. If not filled in, the time defaults to 3 business days. This delivery still must be made to the broker or representative .

Line 24 addresses the time for which earnest money is de-posited in the broker’s trust account or delivered to the title company . This must be workable with the time it will be available . For instance, if buyer agrees to deliver earnest money in 3 days of acceptance, the box for earnest money deposit time cannot be marked “upon acceptance .” The bad news is the money will not be available and this will be a late earnest money deposit . It can be marked “upon receipt” unless there is another condition which must be met .

If there is any deviation from the normal procedure, the in-structions for deposit or delivery must be clear and concise . Agents must disclose by whom, when and where earnest money will be delivered and held . If the process is different in any way than the agent collecting and the broker or rep-resentative delivering earnest, this must be written in detail .

Earnest MoneyInstructions

Gayle BrixeyAuditor

Personal address changes are required to be updated with-in 10 business days of the change. It takes less than five minutes to make the changes to your account through the IREC’s Online Services. You must provide a valid physical address, as well as a mailing address, if your mailing ad-dress is different than the physical address. A PO Box is not a valid physical address and cannot be used as such .If you are active, all mail is sent to the brokerage office. It is your responsibility as the licensee to make sure the Com-mission has the most current information on file for you, whether active or inactive . If you are active, please make sure you pick your mail up from the brokerage office or work with your broker to have your mail sent to you from the brokerage .Company address changes must be done immediately . There is no time extension to update the address as there is with a personal address change . If the Commission receives returned mail for a company, the Commission will auto-matically terminate that company license, and all licensees associated with the company will be inactivated .Save yourself from extra work down the road by taking a few moments now to check and update your address if nec-essary .

DISCIPLINARY ACTIONS 5/01/17 - 10/31/17

Formal Actions Beaux, Kimberly, unlicensed individual, and Idaho In-vestment Management LLC, unlicensed entity . Beaux is a property manager, her company is Idaho Investment Management LLC . She advertised one of her management properties for sale . She was contacted by a licensee with an interested client, but when he asked for a compensation agreement, Beaux avoided him . The licensee informed her about the need for a real estate license, and she stopped talking to him completely . Approximately 45 days after the start of IREC’s investigation, Beaux obtained a Pow-er of Attorney in a attempt to avoid discipline . Stipulated to violation of Idaho Code 54-2002 - for unlicensed prac-tice . Beaux is ordered to cease and desist from further un-licensed practice; she and her company are required to pay a $2,000 civil fine, and $450 for costs and attorney’s fees. Beaux and Idaho Investment Management are jointly and severally liable for the fine and fees.Benglan, Randy Lee, salesperson in Montpelier . Benglan obtained a listing on May 26, 2016, and entered the prop-erty into the MLS . In the MLS comments, he indicated the keys were in a lockbox . The property went under contract with the acceptance of a counter offer on June 22, 2016 . The seller went to the cabin to remove their personal prop-erty, and discovered the keys hidden under a rock on a chair under the porch . This was reported as making them avail-able to the buyers so they could have unrestricted access to the property . Stipulated to violation of Idaho Code 54-2060(3) - failure to account for property, and 54-2087(5) - failure to account for property on behalf of a client . Given a Formal Reprimand; required to pay a $500 civil fine, and $450 in costs and attorney’s fees . He must also successfully complete a Risky Business 1 course within six months .Dickerson, Valerie C., salesperson in Boise . Dickerson was terminated at her brokerage for cause . The former des-ignated broker reported this action to the Commission as required by law . Upon further investigation it was revealed that Dickerson forged her buyer’s electronic signatures on two different Buyer Representation Agreements . Because she did not have a valid agency agreement, she filled out the Representation Confirmation section incorrectly. Stip-ulated to violation of Idaho Code 54-2060(11) - dishonest and dishonorable dealing, and 54-2085(3) - filling out the Representation Confirmation section incorrectly. Given a Formal Reprimand; required to pay a $1,000 civil fine, and $750 in costs and attorney’s fees . She is also required to successfully complete a Business Conduct and Office Op-erations class within six months .Dudley, Kristen, salesperson in Meridian . Dudley listed a property, then brought a buyer to the table that she repre-sented . In the Purchase and Sale Agreement, she indicat-ed she was acting as an assigned agent for both the buyer and the seller, which is impossible . This offer was not ac-cepted by her seller . Dudley failed to turn in this offer to her designated broker . This prevented him from making a ledger card, and marking and dating the offer as rejected . Instead of preparing a new offer from the original buyer,

Dudley recycled the old paperwork; something that would not have been possible if the broker had correctly marked it as rejected . A competing agent brought an offer, which Dudley’s seller accepted . Dudley’s original buyer returned to the bargaining table and made a new offer, which the seller accepted in a backup position. The offer in first po-sition failed, and the offer in backup position closed on the property . Dudley stipulated to violation of Idaho Code 54-2060(3) - failure to remit the transaction documents to her broker, and 54-2088(2) - incorrectly marking that she was an assigned agent for both the buyer and seller . Given a Formal Reprimand and required to pay $450 for the costs and attorney’s fees . Additionally, she is required to pay a $500 civil fine, but the fine is withheld, providing she suc-cessfully completes a Business Conduct and Office Opera-tions class within ninety days .Egbert, Matthew D., salesperson in Meridian . Egbert al-lowed his license to expire on March 31, 2016 . He renewed shortly thereafter, but could only renew on inactive status . He failed to have his designated broker activate his license . Egbert worked on multiple transactions on an inactive li-cense . Subsequent investigation revealed he also failed to remit multiple transaction documents to his designated bro-ker . Stipulated to violation of Idaho Code 54-2002 - un-licensed practice, and 54-2060(3) - failure to remit docu-ments to his designated broker . Given a Formal Reprimand; required to pay a $1,500 civil fine, and $450 for the costs and attorney’s fees, and he must successfully complete a Business Conduct and Office Operations class within six months .Eggleston, Casey R., inactive salesperson . Eggleston pulled a knife on a group of people and threatened them with it. He was convicted of a felony on October 3, 2016. Found to be in violation of Idaho Code 54-2018(9) - failure to update his personal contact information within ten days, and 54-2061(1)(a) – conviction of a felony. Given a formal reprimand and must pay $450 for the costs and attorney’s fees . His real estate license is revoked, but the revocation is withheld providing he complies with all the terms of his criminal probation and the Commission’s Final Order.FitzSimons, Elga L., salesperson in Meridian . FitzSimons represented a buyer in a transaction involving a licensee who was the seller . This seller/licensee accepted an offer agreeing to pay $4,600 in costs and fees for Fitzsimons’ buyer . The seller/licensee failed to notice this until after she was under contract, then spent the entire time trying to get out of the contract . This situation led to the complaint at the Commission . Further investigation revealed FitzSimons mishandled the keys to the seller/licensee’s property . Stip-ulated to violation of Idaho Code 54-2060(3) - failure to account for property, and 54-2086(1)(c) - failure to account for property on behalf of a customer . Given a Formal Rep-rimand; required to pay a $500 civil fine, and $450 for the costs and attorney’s fees . She must also successfully com-plete a Risky Business 1 class within six months .Gallegos, Carol J., designated broker in Sagle . Gallegos has a current listing of a resort property . She is licensed


Idaho Real Estate Commissionin several western states, including Idaho, and was in the process of obtaining her California license . She intended to hang this license with The Passport Group, a licensed California brokerage . She advertised her Idaho resort list-ing through The Passport Group . Stipulated to violation of Idaho Code 54-2053(2) – a new business name shall not be used or shown in advertising unless and until a proper notice of change in the business name has been approved by the Commission . Given a Formal Reprimand, must pay a $500 civil fine, and $450 in costs and attorney’s fees.Gardner, Sheri F., salesperson in Boise . Gardner prepared an offer for a client, indicating that she held a $1,000 per-sonal check that would be taken to the title company upon acceptance . She failed to collect the earnest money, and the seller accepted without knowing this . The buyer gave Gardner the earnest money one day after acceptance . She held all of the documents and the earnest money for ap-proximately eleven days before turning them in to her bro-ker . Approximately two weeks later her broker reminded her to take the funds to title, but she failed to do this . The transaction proceeded to closing, requiring an addendum to indicate there was no earnest money . Stipulated to viola-tion of Idaho Code 54-2051(4)(a) - failure to include all terms and conditions in the Purchase and Sale Agreement as they refer to earnest money; 54-2060(3) - failure to remit transaction documents to her broker; 54-2060(12) - reck-less conduct and gross negligence; 54-2086(1)(c) - failure to account on behalf of a customer; 54-2087(4) - failure to promote the best interest of the buyer client in good faith, honesty, and fair dealing; 54-2086(1)(a) - failure to perform ministerial acts on behalf of the seller customer; and 54-2087(5) - failure to account for monies on behalf of her buyer client . Given a Formal Reprimand; ordered to pay a $1,000 civil fine and $600 in costs and attorney’s fees; and must successfully complete a Business Conduct and Office Operations class.Graham, Kent Stanford, inactive salesperson . Convicted of felony possession of a controlled substance . He was also convicted of a misdemeanor for Driving Under the Influence of Drugs . Stipulated to violation of Idaho Code 54-2061(1)(a) – conviction of a felony.
