Summary: The Real Estate Law provides for the licensure and regulation of real estate brokers and
salespersons by the Real Estate Commissioner, the chief officer of the Department of Real Estate
within the Business, Consumer Services, and Housing Agency. Current law provides various duties and
obligations owed to a prospective purchaser of real property. This bill would require a real estate
broker or salesperson, or person acting on their behalf, who includes a digitally altered image, as
defined, in an advertisement or other promotional material for the sale of real property to include a
disclosure, as specified. If the advertisement or promotional material is posted on an internet website,
the bill would require the same image without digital alteration to be included, as specified.
