The Massachusetts Board of Registration of Real Estate Brokers and Salespersons is a regulatory agency under the Division of Professional Licensure. Its mission is to protect the general public, not licensees.
The Board enforces the real estate licensing laws (M.G.L. c. 112, §§ 87PP–87DDD), establishes regulations (254 CMR), administers licensing exams, investigates complaints, and disciplines licensees for violations. Although the Board interacts with licensees, its role is to ensure consumers are protected from fraud, incompetence, or misconduct in real estate transactions.
Thus, the Board’s primary duty is safeguarding the general public, not serving the interests of licensees or government branches.
