789 The following Fiscal Impact Statement and Bill Analysis are prepared for the benefit of the members of the General Assembly, solely for purposes of information, summarization and explanation and do not represent the intent of the General Assembly or either chamber thereof for any purpose.
In general, fiscal impacts are based upon a variety of informational sources, including the analyst’s professional knowledge.
Whenever applicable, agency data is consulted as part of the analysis, however final products do not necessarily reflect an assessment from any specific department.

GF=General Fund Municipal Impact:
None Explanation The bill establishes a registration process for real estate teams resulting in a cost to the Department of the Consumer Protection (DCP) and the Office of the State Comptroller and a revenue gain to the General Fund.
To meet the requirements of the bill DCP will need to hire one processing technician and one real estate examiner for a cost of $166,406 in FY 22 and $171,398 in FY 23 (cost includes salary and fringe benefits).
The processing technician and examiner will license the teams, ensure applicants have proper credentials, investigate complaints, and address advertising violations.
It's anticipated that there are 1,100 individuals and 250 teams already engaged in this practice with numerous advertisement violations occurring.
The bill establishes a $565 initial application fee and a $375 annual 1The fringe benefit costs for most state employees are budgeted centrally in accounts administered by the Comptroller.
The estimated active employee fringe benefit cost associated with most personnel changes is 41.3% of payroll in FY 22 and FY 23.

Approximately 250 teams are engaging in this practice and more are expected to apply if real estate teams are allowed under Connecticut law.
House "A" requires the Commissioner of DCP to not use state funds to hire a consultant to make programmatic changes to the licensing system which reduces the cost to DCP by $40,000 in FY 22.
The Out Years The annualized ongoing fiscal impact identified above would continue into the future subject to inflation and the number of licenses applied for.

789 OLR Bill Analysis sHB 6624 (as amended by House "A")* AN ACT CONCERNING LICENSING REQUIREMENTS FOR REAL ESTATE BROKERS.
SUMMARY This bill increases the minimum prior work experience required to apply for a real estate broker’s license on or after January 1, 2022.
Principally, it requires applicants to have a minimum number of hours worked and real estate transactions closed in the prior three years.
The bill also establishes a registration process for real estate “teams,” which are groups of at least two licensed real estate brokers, or salespeople affiliated with the same sponsoring broker, that advertise using a team name.
It allows the Department of Consumer Protection (DCP) commissioner, in her discretion, to engage third parties to implement the team registration process;
however, it prohibits her from expending state funds to hire consultants to make program changes to the licensing system.
Under the bill, teams must register with DCP in a form and manner the DCP commissioner prescribes.
Initial registrations are valid for one year and cost $565.
Teams may apply for one-year renewals for $375.
Under the bill, a sponsoring licensed real estate broker serves as the team’s primary contact and must ensure it (1) complies with all existing advertising laws and regulations applicable to real estate brokers and (2) accurately and timely files registration forms and updates.
The bill also makes technical changes.
*House Amendment “A” (1) allows the DCP commissioner to engage sHB6624 / File No.

EFFECTIVE DATE:
January 1, 2022 REAL ESTATE BROKER MINIMUM EXPERIENCE AND EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS The bill requires a broker license applicant, before sitting for the written licensure exam, to meet the bill’s expanded experience requirements in addition to current law’s education requirements.

Experience Requirements Under the bill, in the three years prior to applying, an applicant must have:
1.
been actively engaged as a licensed real estate salesperson under the supervision of a Connecticut-licensed real estate broker for at least 1,500 hours, instead of at least two years as current law requires, and 2.
represented a seller, buyer, lessor, or lessee in at least four closed real estate transactions.
The bill requires the supervising broker or his or her authorized representative to certify whether an applicant’s active engagement meets the hourly experience requirement within 90 days after the applicant provides it to him or her.

REAL ESTATE TEAMS Under the bill, real estate team registrations must include the name and contact information for each team member, including the name and contact information for the team’s sponsoring real estate broker.
Registrations must also include the team’s team name, which must (1) include the full name of at least one licensed real estate broker or real estate salesperson who is team member, or (2) be immediately followed by “at/of” and the full name of the sponsoring real estate broker.
The bill prohibits team names from including:
1.
any abbreviation, term, or phrase that implies the team is a business entity (e.g., “LLC” or “company”);
or 2.
the name of anyone who is not a licensed real estate broker or salesperson.
The bill requires a team to notify DCP about any changes to registration information within 12 days in a form and manner the commissioner prescribes.
Additionally, the bill requires teams to pay DCP a $25 fee for any change made to, or transfer of, a team’s registration after the initial registration is filed.
