Upon termination of a management agreement, how quickly must a licensee provide all records and documents?

Upon termination of a management agreement, the licensee is required to provide all records and documents within 30 days. This timeframe is established to ensure a smooth transition and to uphold a standard of accountability and record-keeping in real estate transactions. Timely return of records is crucial, as it enables all parties involved to access important documentation without significant delays, thus maintaining compliance with Georgia real estate laws. Additionally, it helps protect the interests of clients and ensures that the licensee adheres to professional standards and regulations set forth by the Georgia Real Estate Commission. Following this protocol fosters trust and reliability in real estate management practices.
