Which statement is true regarding license display requirements for brokers and salespeople?

• A. Licenses may be stored in a private safe and not visible.
• B. Licenses may be kept in the broker's desk drawer out of sight.
• C. Licenses must be displayed publicly at the office.
• D. Every broker and salesman's license must be prominently displayed.

Answer: (D)

Public visibility of a license at the place of business is required so clients can easily verify who is licensed to practice. The correct statement reflects that every broker and salesman's license must be prominently displayed in the broker’s office, in a conspicuous spot where the public can see it. Keeping a license in a private safe or a desk drawer hides it from clients and does not meet the rule, while displaying it publicly at the office fulfills the obligation and promotes transparency and compliance.
