Question: Am I required to take 30 hours while my license is on inactive status?
Answer: No. However, if your license is inactive for more than three consecutive years you will be required to complete a 30-hour course before being allowed to activate the license.
NOTE: This license activation course is an elective, but it must be a 30-hour course, not an accumulation of shorter courses. Return to Top
Question: How long can my license remain inactive?
Answer: Indefinitely, as long as you continue to pay your required renewal fees.

Question: My license was supposed to be renewed ten months ago but I didn't do it. Is it too late to renew the license?
Answer: No. You can renew by simply paying the renewal and late fees up to twelve months after expiration. After twelve months the license is canceled.

Question: My license wasn't renewed within twelve months of expiration. Does this mean I have to take the license exam again?
Answer: Not necessarily. A license can be reinstated within two years after cancellation if you do all of the following:
Alternatively, you could just take the state examination again. Unless more than three years have elapsed since you took your real estate fundamentals course—in which case you would have to complete it again to be eligible for the exam—it might be easier and more cost-effective to take our exam review course (the Cram course) and sit for the examination.

Sheli K.I'm very pleased with your course. It definitely gave me what I needed to pass, and the information was easy to remember in the way it was presented. I'm glad I took the cram course as well; it gave me extra knowledge as well as confidence. I was done with the exam in about 80 minutes. Thank YOU!
