A 9518 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Increases the period of supervision required for certain real estate license applications

This bill increases the required supervised experience period for new real estate brokers from two to four years. It directly affects individuals applying for a real estate broker's license who must now complete four years of supervised work under a licensed broker, instead of two. Key provisions include requiring proof of 152 hours of approved coursework (including cultural competency training), passing an exam, and demonstrating knowledge of fair housing laws and real estate practices. The change aims to strengthen oversight before granting broker licenses, with the requirement taking effect 180 days after enactment.
