There shall be separate accounts in the Real Estate Fund for purposes of real estate education and research and for purposes of recovery which shall be known respectively as the Education and Research Account and the Consumer Recovery Account. The commissioner may, by regulation, require that up to 8 percent, or any lesser amount that he or she deems appropriate, of the amount of any license fee collected under this part be credited to the Education and Research Account. Twelve percent of the amount of any license fee collected shall be credited to the Consumer Recovery Account, provided, however, that if as of June 30 of any fiscal year the balance of funds in the Consumer Recovery Account is at least three million five hundred thousand dollars ($3,500,000), all
funds in excess of this amount which have been credited to the Consumer Recovery Account shall instead be credited to the Real Estate Fund. As long as the balance of funds in the Consumer Recovery Account exceeds three million five hundred thousand dollars ($3,500,000), all license fees collected, except for the percentage of license fees credited to the Education and Research Account, shall be credited to the Real Estate Fund. Funds in the Education and Research Account shall be used by the commissioner in accordance with Section 10451.5. The Consumer Recovery Account is continuously appropriated for carrying out Chapter 6.5 (commencing with Section 10470).
As used in this part or any other provision of law, “Recovery Account” shall be deemed to refer to the Consumer Recovery Account.
