Requires text messages soliciting home owners to provide notice when individuals sending solicitations are not licensed by New Jersey Real Estate Commission.
S 1366 requires unlicensed individuals sending text messages to solicit home sales to include three specific disclosures in a separate pre-solicitation message: that they are not licensed by the New Jersey Real Estate Commission, their employer's name, and that the message is a solicitation. This bill directly affects unlicensed real estate solicitors and home owners receiving such texts. Violations carry fines up to $5,000 for first offenses and $10,000 for repeat offenses, enforced by the Division of Consumer Affairs. The Division must also launch a public education campaign to inform both licensees and home owners about the law and how to verify real estate professional licensing.
