APPENDIX: SUBSTANTIVE POLICY STATEMENTS<br />
Short Title: Disclosure <strong>of</strong> Licensee’s Home Address<br />
This substantive policy statement is advisory only. A substantive policy statement does not include internal<br />
procedural documents that only affect the internal procedures <strong>of</strong> the agency and does not impose additional<br />
requirements or penalties on regulated parties or include confidential information or rules made in accordance with<br />
the <strong>Arizona</strong> Administrative Procedure Act. If you believe that this substantive policy statement does impose<br />
additional requirements or penalties on regulated parties you may petition the agency under ARS 41-1033 for a<br />
review <strong>of</strong> the statement.<br />
Description <strong>of</strong> Practice/Procedure: Only the business addresses and telephone numbers <strong>of</strong> active-status<br />
licensees are disclosed to the public. Requests for the residential address and telephone number <strong>of</strong> an active<br />
status licensee shall be denied, except in the cases <strong>of</strong> those self-employed brokers whose business and<br />
residential addresses are the same. State law requires the <strong>Department</strong> to make available to the public the<br />
residential address and telephone number <strong>of</strong> an inactive licensee unless the inactive licensee provides the<br />
<strong>Department</strong> with a current and valid alternative mailing address and alternative telephone number. A licensee<br />
who has obtained an Order <strong>of</strong> Protection may provide the <strong>Department</strong> with a current and valid alternative<br />
mailing address and alternative telephone number.<br />
All licensees are required to provide and maintain their current residential address on file with the<br />
<strong>Department</strong>. All licensees are required to notify the <strong>Department</strong> within 10 days <strong>of</strong> any changes to their<br />
personal licensing data, including personal (residence) address.<br />
Authority: A.R.S. § 32-3801, adopted April 4, 1997, states that a licensee’s residential address and telephone<br />
number shall not be available unless that is the only address on file. At the <strong>Department</strong>, a business address<br />
is available when the license held is current and an employing broker employs the licensee. This law<br />
superseded the 1996 provision that authorizes the Commissioner to keep confidential a licensee’s home address<br />
and telephone number for good cause upon a request by the licensee. A.R.S. § 32-2123 requires an applicant<br />
to provide the applicant’s residential address. A.A.C. R4-28-301 (E) & R4-28-303 require the residential<br />
address be kept current.<br />
