licensee

n.
One to whom or to which a license is granted.

Individual permitted to enter property with the permission of the owner or the person who controls the property. There is no mutual profit motive; the licensee comes onto the property for his or her sole benefit. For example, the owner of land gives an individual permission to hunt on the property but does not charge a fee. The owner must warn the licensee of any hidden dangers on the property of which he or she is aware.

One who holds a real estate License a licensed salesperson or Broker. See Licensing Examination.
Example: A pocket card is held by licensees. The employing broker displays licenses in the office.

One to whom a license has been granted; in property, one whose presence on the premises is not invited but tolerated. Thus, a licensee is "a person who is neither a customer, nor a servant, nor a trespasser, and does not stand in any contractual relation with the owner of the premises, and who is permitted expressly or impliedly to go thereon merely for his own interest, convenience, or gratification." 118 S.E. 697, 698. In tort law, one's status as a licensee may affect the duty of care owed to him. Typically, "the law places those who come upon the premises of another in three classes: invitees are those who are expressly or impliedly invited, as a customer to a store; licensees are persons whose presence is not invited, but tolerated; trespassers are persons who are neither suffered nor invited to enter. The duty of the owner toward an invitee is to exercise reasonable care to keep the premises in a safe condition, but licensees take the premises as they find them, the only duty of the occupier being to give notice of traps or concealed dangers [of which the occupier himself has knowledge]. Toward trespassers the occupier need only refrain from willful or wanton injury as modified by the ‘attractive nuisance' line of cases." 282 N.W. 389, 392. Some jurisdictions have abandoned the tort law distinction between invitees and licensees. See Prosser & Keeton, Torts §63 (5th ed. 1984).
