NOTE: The online status inquiry feature is a service for consumers. It is not intended for, nor capable of, automated database searches or sorts. If you desire such database files, please contact the Department for information on availability and costs.
Using the Real Estate License Status Inquiry Screen
If you enter a name (and, optionally, the city), click on the find button to advance to an index of licensees who satisfy your search criteria. The license identification number, name, license type and city as contained in the mailing address of record, are displayed in the index. This information is provided to help you select the license record you are seeking.
If you click on the license I.D. number from the name index or if you use the license I.D. search from the first screen, you will migrate to the final screen that displays the public information available for that licensee such as the license expiration date, status, salesperson associates, office addresses and corporate affiliations.
The information presented reflects the license records of the DRE at the time of your inquiry; however, it will not reflect pending updates which are being processed by the Department.
Helpful Hints
- Mark the search page with a "bookmark" or "favorite" indicator so that you can initiate search requests from your own menu.
- Review the search tips above, especially when you receive a "no record" reply.
- Review the supplemental explanations of status and comment descriptions available on the public information page.
Actions Against Unlicensed Persons
The Department publishes monthly a list of names of persons and businesses which have been found to have been conducting real estate activities without a license. See Desist and Refrain Orders for Unlicensed Activities.
