What are funds received for deposit in the Guaranty Fund used for?

To cover operational costs of the brokerage
To indemnify aggrieved participants in real estate transactions
To invest in real estate properties
To pay real estate agents their commissions

The correct answer is: To indemnify aggrieved participants in real estate transactions

Funds received for deposit in the Guaranty Fund are specifically designated to indemnify aggrieved participants in real estate transactions. This means that if a consumer suffers a financial loss due to the actions of a licensed real estate professional—such as fraud, misrepresentation, or other wrongful acts—they may be compensated from this fund. The purpose of establishing such a fund is to provide a safety net for consumers, ensuring that they have recourse in case ethical standards are not met by professionals in the real estate industry. The Guaranty Fund plays a critical role in maintaining trust and stability in the real estate market by protecting consumers, which in turn helps to uphold the overall integrity of the profession. Other choices reflect uses that are not aligned with the primary purpose of the fund; for example, funds should not be used for operational costs, investing in properties, or paying agents’ commissions, as those functions are separately handled within the brokerage and real estate transaction processes.
