Which of the following activities would not require a real estate license?

  1. Selling your own commercial property

  2. Selling someone else's house

  3. Managing a friend's rental property for a fee

  4. Arranging the sale of a timeshare for a friend

The correct answer is: Selling your own commercial property

Selling your own commercial property does not require a real estate license because you are not acting as an agent for someone else. However, selling someone else's house, managing a friend's rental property for a fee, and arranging the sale of a timeshare for a friend all involve representing and negotiating on behalf of another party, which requires a real estate license. Without a license, these activities would be considered illegal and subject to penalties. Therefore, option A is the only activity that would not require a real estate license.
