📖 What you need to know

Client and earnest-money funds in South Carolina must be deposited promptly into a designated trust or escrow account maintained by the broker, kept separate from the firm's operating money to avoid commingling. The broker-in-charge is accountable for the proper handling, record-keeping, and disbursement of these trust funds. South Carolina licenses renew on a regular cycle, and licensees must complete the required continuing-education hours before renewal to keep their license active and in good standing.
