What activities does the Residential Leasing Agent license permit the licensee to engage in?

The Residential Leasing Agent license specifically authorizes the licensee to engage in activities related to residential leasing that require licensure by the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR). This includes tasks such as showing residential properties, negotiating lease terms, and assisting tenants and landlords in lease transactions.

The primary focus of this license is on residential properties, which aligns with the duties and responsibilities outlined by the IDFPR for residential leasing agents.

In contrast, the sale of commercial real estate, activities specifically related to HUD (U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development) properties, and shopping center management and leasing fall outside the scope of authority granted by a Residential Leasing Agent license. Each of these activities typically requires different credentials or licenses, highlighting why they are not appropriate choices in the context of this question.
