A. An application for and acceptance of a license as a nonresident salesperson or broker shall be deemed to constitute irrevocable appointment of the commissioner as the agent or attorney in fact of the licensee for the acceptance of service of process issued in this state in any action or proceeding against the licensee arising out of the licensing, out of transactions under the license or in any action that may result in payment from the real estate recovery fund.
B. Duplicate copies of any process shall be served on the commissioner. The plaintiff at the time of service shall pay the commissioner $15, taxable as costs in the action. On receiving this service the commissioner shall promptly forward a copy of the service by certified mail to the licensee at the licensee's last address of record with the commissioner. Process served on the commissioner pursuant to this subsection constitutes service of process on the licensee as though the licensee were personally served with the process in this state.

D. A nonresident broker shall maintain in this state the records required by section 32-2151.01 and shall notify the commissioner of the address where the records are kept or may use online recordkeeping if the data is backed up and the nonresident broker notifies the department of the name of and contact information for the online recordkeeping provider.
