Anyone know which states allow members of the bar to function as a real estate broker without becoming a licensed real estate agent?
Looks like New York may be one:
"Some states such as New York allow licensed attorneys to become real estate brokers without taking any exam."

Is there a comprehensive list somewhere? Haven't found one.

Texas allows a lawyer to take a commission from a principal but will not allow brokers to split commission with an attorney.
