Broker• Increases the entry-level of licensure – now “broker” -from 45 hours of pre-license courses to 90 hours of pre-license courses.

• Provides that 15 of those hours shall be “situational”offerings in a classroom or interactive setting.

• Requires brokers to take 30 hours of post-licensure edu-cation within the first renewal period. 15 of thosehours must be situational in an interactive setting.

• Requires 12 hours of continuing education (CE) eachrenewal period (except the first period when the 30hours of post-license coursework are taken).

Managing Broker• The current top category of licensure – “broker” –requires 120 hours of licensure (salesperson plus 45hours). This bill creates the new category of “managingbroker,” and requires managing brokers to have 165pre-license hours (the 120 broker hours, plus a 45 hourcourse of study focusing on management of an office,supervision of licensees, and administrative issues; 15 ofthose 45 hours would be situational offerings in aninteractive setting).

• Managing brokers would have to take the 12 hours perrenewal of broker CE, plus an additional 12 hours of CEon broker management.

Are You Aware of the New Rules andRequirements for Real Estate Professionals?Let Triton help you update your license.

To register for any of these classes, call (708) 456-0300, Ext. 3500.www.triton.edu/continuing

Enroll in Triton’s Real EstateAcademy:Two courses are available depending on your current sta-tus. (All courses include the required 15 hour interactivecomponent)

1. If your Illinois Real Estate Salesperson license hasexpired or if you have never held a Real EstateLicense, you can take the 90 hour Broker Pre-Licenseclass, RES E13.

2. If you are a currently Licensed Real Estate Broker,you can transition to Managing Broker by taking the45 hour Managing Broker Pre-License class, RES E17.

Do I need to worry aboutthe conversion right now?Please visit www.idfpr.com/ formore information on the transi-tion process.

What are the new licensecategories under the revisedAct? Two main categories of licen-sure will exist under the revisedAct: a) Managing Broker b) Broker

There are no changes to theLeasing agent requirements.

I am a real estate salesper-son with an active license.How long will my licenseremain in effect?The expiration date on allactively-licensed real estatesalesperson licenses was extend-ed an additional year andexpired April 30, 2012.

I am a real estate salesper-son who did not renew mylicense in 2009. Can I stillrenew my license? No, the cut off date was April30, 2011. You will need to meetthe requirements of a newlicensee.

Can I obtain a managing bro-ker license and not managean office?Yes, just the same as brokers didunder the old license law.However only licensed manag-ing brokers designated with theDepartment as a managing bro-ker by their sponsoring brokercan advertise themselves to the

public as a managing broker.Managing brokers that are not designated with theDepartment as a managing broker should advertise them-selves as a “broker”. Where is more informationavailable on the new Act?The revised Real Estate LicenseAct of 2000 is available atwww.idfpr.com/DPR/RE/REALEST.asp Select the Real EstateLicense Act of 2000 link.

I failed the proficiency exam-ination. How can I transitionmy license?You will need to provide theDivision with proof of post-license education which will bethe 30-hour course for salesper-son to broker and proof of pass-ing the 45-hour course for bro-ker to managing broker. A tran-sition form will be available onthe IDFPR Web site atwww.idfpr.com/RETransition.

I had a discipline against aprevious license. How willthis affect my ability to tran-sition my license? Any discipline orders that existwill need to go through theEnforcement section for furtherreview.

How can I check the statusof my license with theDepartment?By entering your license numberinto the IDFPR online look-up atwww.idfpr.com/dpr/licenselookup/default.asp

The new law changes the license categories under the Real Estate License Act of 2000 fromSalesperson and Broker to Broker and Managing Broker. The status of Real Estate Salesperson hasbeen discontinued. The term “broker” is what the public identifies with when it comes to the realestate licensee they work with in a transaction. The term “managing broker” clearly identifies theperson(s) in the brokerage operation that have management authority and responsibility.
