REAL ESTATE COUNCIL OF BRITISH COLUMBIA
In the matter of the Real Estate Services Act
S.B.C. 2004 ch. 42
NOTICE OF LICENSEE RESIGNATION
Evelyn Grace Palmer, while licensed as managing broker with 430871 B.C. Ltd. and 430873 B.C. Ltd. dba Sutton Group – Skaha Realty, Penticton, requested the Real Estate Council of British Columbia to discontinue disciplinary proceedings against her as she has decided to permanently retire from real estate practice. Ms. Palmer was facing a disciplinary hearing into her professional conduct and would have been required to appear before a hearing committee of the Real Estate Council to respond to these allegations.
Considering the fact that there is likely no greater disciplinary penalty than not being licensed to act again, the Real Estate Council agreed with Ms. Palmer ’s request. The lifetime ban on Ms. Palmer ’s licensing under the Real Estate Services Act was effective as of July 7, 2006.
