Summary

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

Marie Therese Denise Lachaine, while licensed as an associate broker with One Percent Realty Ltd., Vancouver, 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. Lachaine 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 again, the Real Estate Council agreed with Ms. Lachaine 's request. Ms. Lachaine surrendered her licence on November 30, 2008 and the lifetime ban on Ms. Lachaine 's licensing under the Real Estate Services Act was effective as of March 6, 2009.
