In addition to the previous exemptions, note that the following UNLICENSED parties may solicit for the sale of real property IF the party is:

• The property owner.
• A person holding the power of attorney FOR the owner.
• An attorney at law acting in the capacity of an attorney ON BEHALF OF the owner.
• A receiver or other court appointee. (We will address the topic of receivers in Chapter 12.)
• A trustee who is selling the property under a deed of trust.

This means that the only unlicensed person who may solicit for the sale of real property is the owner and/or his legal representatives, NOT including his real estate salesperson/broker, since obviously a salesperson or broker is already licensed.
