Pennsylvania Real Estate License Renewal

Every two years, real estate agents in Pennsylvania are required to renew their licenses. The renewal process includes paying the appropriate fees, as well as taking a Continuing Education course. Those with a broker’s license will also be required to complete a six-hour Broker Responsibility course.

The state will send a renewal notice ninety days before the expiration date. The renewal process is completed online, using the PALS (Pennsylvania Assisted Licensing System) website. If the applicant has a criminal background check, he or she will need to submit a fingerprint. If the renewal application is not received by the deadline, it may be rejected and a late fee may be assessed.

New York State Division of Licensing Services (DOS) offers an online renewal option, called eAccessNY. The renewal process takes three months to complete, but it is available from any device. The renewal portal will also include a confirmation page, which you will need to fill out before you can start the renewal process. Once you complete the process, you will receive a certificate of completion. The Real Estate License Renewal certificate will appear on your student dashboard.

The renewal period begins on June 1, 2022 and ends on May 31, 2024. Salespersons will be required to complete 2 hours of agency-related instruction. In addition, they will need to complete a minimum of one hour on recent legal matters, 2 hours of ethics, and 2 hours of implicit bias awareness and understanding.

Those with an Associate Broker’s license will need to complete the same requirements as those with a salesperson’s license, plus a 6-hour Broker Responsibility course. For Broker appointed Supervisors, they will also need to complete the six-hour course. The remaining 10.5 hours will be made up of elective topics. The Association of REALTORS(r) School will be offering the course when it becomes available.

The renewal fee for a salesperson is $55, while the renewal fee for an Associate Broker’s license is $75. You will need to pay the fee using a credit card through eAccessNY. If you have any questions or concerns, the customer service at eAccessNY is happy to help.

For those with a broker’s license, the renewal process will include completing a continuing education course and a criminal background check. For those who have not renewed in the past, the Department of Real Estate will send a courtesy reminder 60 days before the expiration date. In some cases, the renewal reminder will go to a wrong address. You can avoid this problem by setting up a reminder in your calendar or computer. You can also write down the renewal deadline on your calendar and post it where you are likely to see it.

To successfully complete the renewal process, you will need to have a sponsoring broker and complete your Continuing Education courses. You will also need to fill out and sign the renewal forms. Once you have completed all of these steps, you will receive your renewal certificate.

If you have a broker’s license, the renewal application will be submitted through eAccessNY. The eAccessNY portal will prompt you to enter the dates of your CE course and your payment information. The site will then automatically calculate the number of hours needed to meet the renewal requirements. Then, you will be directed to pay the renewal fee.
