What is the term for mixing a client's money with office operating funds?

The correct term for mixing a client's money with office operating funds is co-mingling. Co-mingling refers specifically to the improper practice of combining a client's funds with a broker's own funds, which can lead to potential misuse of the client's money and is prohibited by real estate regulations. It is essential for real estate professionals to maintain clear and separate accounts for client funds to ensure transparency and accountability. This practice protects clients and helps maintain the integrity of the real estate transaction process. Other terms, while related to the concept of combining funds, do not have the specific legal implications or definitions as co-mingling does within the context of real estate transactions.
