In the event a transaction is not completed within the twelve (12) month period, a new cooperative license application may be submitted.

(8) An out-of-state broker may cooperate with only one (1) Idaho broker and an Idaho broker may cooperate with only one (1) out-of-state broker per commercial real estate transaction. However, an out-of-state broker may obtain a cooperative license for more than one (1) commercial real estate transaction at a time.
