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

James Gilmore Ramsay, managing broker with SwiftSure Strata Services Inc. Ltd., Richmond, who was temporarily suspended by the Real Estate Council of British Columbia on February 16, 2007, requested the Real Estate Council to discontinue disciplinary proceedings against him as he had decided to permanently retire from real estate practice. Mr. Ramsay was facing a disciplinary hearing into his professional conduct and would have been required to appear before a discipline hearing committee of the Real Estate Council to respond to these allegations.

Considering the fact that there is likely no greater disciplinary sanction than not being licensed to act again, the Real Estate Council agreed with Mr. Ramsay 's request. The lifetime ban on Mr. Ramsay 's licensing under the Real Estate Services Act was effective as of January 15, 2008.
