(a) If the commission finds, in connection with an application filed under section 20-329v, that (1) the proposed plan of business of the applicant and the proposed sale of real property securities is fair, just and equitable, (2) the applicant intends to transact business fairly and honestly, and (3) the real property securities which the applicant proposed to sell are not such as, in the opinion of the commission will work a fraud upon the purchaser of such real property securities, the commission shall issue to the applicant a permit authorizing the applicant to sell such real property securities in such amounts and for such considerations and upon such terms and conditions as the commission may provide in the permit. If the commission does not make such findings, the commission shall deny the application, refuse the permit and notify the applicant in writing of its decision.

Terms Used In Connecticut General Statutes 20-329w
- Commission: means the Connecticut Real Estate Commission appointed under the provisions of section 20-311a. See Connecticut General Statutes 20-311
- Equitable: Pertaining to civil suits in "equity" rather than in "law." In English legal history, the courts of "law" could order the payment of damages and could afford no other remedy. See damages. A separate court of "equity" could order someone to do something or to cease to do something. See, e.g., injunction. In American jurisprudence, the federal courts have both legal and equitable power, but the distinction is still an important one. For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. Source: U.S. Courts
- Fraud: Intentional deception resulting in injury to another.
- Real property: Land, and all immovable fixtures erected on, growing on, or affixed to the land.
(b) Any applicant aggrieved by the refusal of a permit under this section or the conditions of any permit issued under this section shall be given notice and afforded an opportunity for hearing as provided in the regulations adopted by the Commissioner of Consumer Protection.
