When accepting money belonging to others What is a "Ledger"? A record collectively called a "ledger" or an equivalent component of an accounting system which records in chronological sequence all money which is received or disbursed by the broker on behalf of each particular beneficiary of a trust account. This record must show the monetary transactions affecting each individual beneficiary and must segregate such transactions from those pertaining to other beneficiaries of the trust account. The Real Estate Commision does not require a ledger when an Employing Broker is only managing company money. However, if s/he accepts money belonging to others both an escrow account and a ledger for that account is required. If an employing broker does not take physical possession of earnest money (buyers write checks directly to the title company), rents (written directly to owners), security deposits (written directly to owners) and such; then the emplying broker does not need an escrow account. If s/he does not need an escrow account; s/he does not need a ledger.
