GLOSSARY TERM GUIDEBuild the complete exam definition
Learn the rule, separate it from the nearest distractor, then apply it to a Georgia fact pattern.
What does Active license mean?
An active Georgia real estate license authorizes the holder to perform acts within that license class while properly affiliated, supervised, renewed, and compliant with applicable education and legal requirements.
How do you separate the nearest exam answer?
Active describes current authority to practice. A person can hold an inactive license and still be a licensee, but cannot perform licensed brokerage activity.
What changes or stays the same in Georgia?
A Georgia salesperson's active status depends on affiliation with the proper broker and Commission records, not merely on possession of a license certificate.
A newly licensed salesperson affiliates with a qualifying broker and completes the activation process before advertising, showing, or negotiating for compensation.
Passing the exam or receiving a license number does not necessarily prove that the license is active for a particular transaction date.

Answer before reading the explanation. Then explain why every distractor belongs to a different term.
A candidate passes the exam and receives a license number but has not yet affiliated with a broker. A friend asks the new licensee to negotiate an offer on a house next week for a fee. What is the right course?
- A
Wait until the license is active under a broker
- B
Go ahead, because passing the exam authorizes it
- C
Go ahead, because a license number was issued
- D
Go ahead if a listing broker approves it verbally
Active status requires affiliation with a broker and the Commission's records reflecting it. Passing the exam or holding a license number does not by itself authorize brokerage activity. Until the license is active, the new licensee may not negotiate for compensation.
