Which of the following roles do Barb and Jeff not hold regarding the Tennessee Real Estate Commission?

  1. They are real estate agents

  2. They reside in different parts of the state

  3. They represent the public

  4. They are commission members

The correct answer is: They are real estate agents

The correct response indicates that Barb and Jeff do not hold the role of real estate agents in relation to the Tennessee Real Estate Commission. Members of the Tennessee Real Estate Commission are essentially tasked with regulating the real estate industry to ensure fairness and compliance with laws to protect the public interest. Being a member of the commission involves oversight responsibilities rather than engaging in real estate transactions themselves. Typical roles for commissioners include policy development, enforcement of real estate laws, and addressing consumer complaints, which distinguishes them from the role of an active real estate agent who engages in buying and selling property on behalf of clients. While the other options reflect characteristics or functions related to the commission—like residing in different parts of the state or representing the public—being a real estate agent does not fit their designated responsibilities within the commission's framework. Thus, it is clear that their roles are separate from that of real estate agents.
