Which of the following is NOT considered a licensable activity in Maine?

  1. Promoting the sale of real estate

  2. Promoting rentals

  3. Promoting listings

  4. When representing buyers

The correct answer is: Promoting rentals

Promoting rentals is not classified as a licensable activity in Maine. According to Maine real estate regulations, activities that require a real estate license include various transactional roles primarily related to the purchase and sale of real estate and other related services. While marketing and advertising properties for sale or representing buyers involve duties that necessitate a real estate license, promoting rentals typically falls outside of those requirements. This distinction is important because it indicates the scope of professional activities that real estate licenses cover, focusing more on sales and purchases rather than leasing or renting properties. Understanding these definitions helps potential licensees grasp the boundaries of what requires licensing in their practice.
