Increases the period of supervision required for certain real estate license applications
This bill increases the required supervision period for new real estate brokers from two to five consecutive years before they can obtain a full license. It directly affects individuals applying for real estate broker licenses who must now complete five years of supervised work under a licensed broker, instead of the previous two-year requirement. Key new provisions include mandatory cultural competency training, fair housing law education, and proof of 152 hours of approved real estate coursework. The bill also requires applicants to demonstrate competency in English, real estate transactions, and discrimination laws, with the department retaining authority to approve training formats. The law would take effect 180 days after enactment.
