Who is responsible for having a written company policy that identifies the type of real estate relationships in which the agency may engage?

Office manager
The required policy manual is available through the Maine State Real Estate Commission
Associate Broker
Designated Broker

The correct answer is: Designated Broker

The responsibility for having a written company policy that outlines the type of real estate relationships in which the agency may engage falls upon the designated broker. This individual is typically the person in charge of overseeing the operations of a real estate brokerage and ensuring compliance with state laws and regulations. The designated broker must create, implement, and maintain policies that govern how the agency conducts its business, including the nature of relationships with clients and customers, such as agency relationships and fiduciary duties. This written policy is important not only for legal compliance but also for providing transparency to clients about the agency's practices. While other roles within a brokerage, like an office manager or associate broker, may assist with aspects of operations, the designated broker carries the ultimate responsibility for ensuring that the brokerage adheres to state regulations and ethical standards, including having the necessary documentation concerning agency relationships.
