New Law For Agent Effective July I 2009!
DRE License Number Must Be on First-Contact Materials: Effective July 1, 2009, California's real estate agents must disclose their Department of Real Estate (DRE) license numbers on all solicitation materials intended to be the first point of contact with consumers. Examples include business cards, stationery, advertising flyers, and other materials designed to solicit the creation of a professional relationship between a licensee and consumer. Excluded from the law, however, are advertisements in print or electronic media, "for sale" signs, and classified rental ads reciting the address or phone number of the rental property. The DRE may adopt regulations to clarify the first-contact materials covered under this new requirement. This bill also requires agents' license numbers on real property purchase agreements, which C.A.R. has already incorporated into our standard form purchase agreements. Senate Bill 1461

Thank you for that, that is a very good deal on business cards and I am going to want to add my id number so people can trust I am a real estate agent. There is a lot of people out there pretending and hopefully we can get ride of that.
