(1) A timeshare salesperson shall be registered to a specific timeshare promoter who has one or more timeshare offerings registered in this state. The promoter shall have full responsibility for all activities of the promoter's timeshare salesperson which relate to offering timeshares for sale.
(2) An active real estate broker or salesperson may act as the brokerage agent of one or more timeshare promoters without registering as a timeshare salesperson. However, this exemption from registration as a timeshare salesperson applies only when the exempted person is performing real estate brokerage in compliance with chapter
18.85 RCW. Further, this exemption only pertains to the timeshare salesperson registration requirement. All other provisions of the Timeshare Act apply to real estate brokers and salespersons offering timeshares for sale.
(3) A natural person may be registered as a timeshare salesperson while licensed as a real estate broker or salesperson. However, the salesperson shall conduct timeshare activities and maintain associated business records separate and apart from his or her real estate broker or salesperson activities and records. The term "separate and apart" shall not preclude location of timeshare salesperson and real estate brokerage activities at the same office.
(4) Any individual who is registered as a timeshare salesperson and licensed as a real estate broker or salesperson shall disclose in writing to the recipient of a timeshare sales offer whether he or she is acting as the timeshare salesperson of a promoter or a real estate broker or salesperson at the time he or she presents the public offering statement.
