Whether you hold a salesperson or broker license, the renewal process is straightforward \u2014 as long as you know the rules, complete your continuing education (CE) on time, and file through the state\u2019s online portal before your deadline.<\/p>\n<p>This guide covers everything you need to know: when your license expires, how many CE hours are required, what the renewal fees are, how to file online, and what happens if you miss the deadline.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/j62w74YizgU?si=BrhOzjXMUrssukJ8\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>Massachusetts Real Estate License Renewal at a Glance<\/h2>\n<table width=\"624\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"624\"><strong>License Types: <\/strong>Salesperson and Broker<\/p>\n<p><strong>Renewal Cycle: <\/strong>Every 2 years<\/p>\n<p><strong>Expiration Date: <\/strong>Your birthday (every other year)<\/p>\n<p><strong>CE Hours Required: <\/strong>12 hours<\/p>\n<p><strong>Renewal Window Opens: <\/strong>90 days before your expiration date<\/p>\n<p><strong>Salesperson Fee: <\/strong>$103<\/p>\n<p><strong>Broker Fee: <\/strong>$142<\/p>\n<p><strong>Renewal Portal: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/occupationallicensingandpermitting.mass.gov\/madol\/s\/\">eLIPSE (Massachusetts DOL)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Governing Board: <\/strong>Massachusetts Board of Registration of Real Estate Brokers and Salespersons<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>When Does Your Massachusetts Real Estate License Expire?<\/h2>\n<p>Massachusetts ties real estate license expiration to your birthday \u2014 making it easy to remember. Your license expires every two years on your birthday. For example, if your birthday is June 15, your license expires on June 15 of your renewal year.<\/p>\n<p>The good news: you don\u2019t have to wait until your birthday to start the renewal process. The state opens the renewal window <strong>90 days before your expiration date<\/strong>. That means you can \u2014 and should \u2014 renew well in advance. Getting your renewal done early ensures you have your updated license in hand before the old one expires, so there\u2019s no gap in your ability to practice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pro tip: <\/strong>Set a calendar reminder 3 months before your birthday in your renewal year. That\u2019s the earliest you can submit your renewal, and starting early gives you a comfortable runway to complete your CE and gather required documents.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Who Needs to Renew?<\/h2>\n<p>Both <strong>real estate salespersons<\/strong> and <strong>real estate brokers<\/strong> licensed in Massachusetts must renew every two years to maintain an active license. This requirement applies regardless of how active you are in the market.<\/p>\n<p>There are a few exceptions and special situations worth knowing:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Attorney Brokers: <\/strong>Massachusetts real estate brokers who are also Massachusetts attorneys in good standing with the Bar are exempt from the 12-hour CE requirement. (Note: this exemption does not apply to attorneys licensed only in other states.)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Reciprocal License Holders: <\/strong>Agents who obtained a Massachusetts license through reciprocity from another state are exempt from Massachusetts CE requirements \u2014 as long as they complete their home state\u2019s CE requirement. If their home state has no CE requirement, they must complete the Massachusetts 12-hour requirement.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Inactive License Holders: <\/strong>You can renew your license as inactive without completing CE requirements. An inactive license does not permit you to engage in real estate sales or brokerage activity, but it preserves your license and allows for referral fees in some circumstances. You can later reactivate your license by completing CE and filing a reactivation form.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Massachusetts CE Requirements: What You Need to Know<\/h2>\n<p>Before you can renew your active Massachusetts real estate license, you must complete <strong>12 hours of state-approved continuing education<\/strong>. This requirement is the same for both salespersons and brokers.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>The 12-Hour Curriculum<\/h3>\n<p>The Massachusetts Board of Registration of Real Estate Brokers and Salespersons develops the approved CE curriculum. All 12 hours must come from courses offered by a state-licensed real estate school or a board-approved online provider.<\/p>\n<p>CE courses typically cover subjects such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Real estate law and regulations<\/li>\n<li>Agency relationships and disclosure<\/li>\n<li>Fair housing laws<\/li>\n<li>Contract law and transaction practice<\/li>\n<li>Ethics and professional conduct<\/li>\n<li>Technology tools and compliance in real estate<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All courses approved in Massachusetts are for two hours each. You can mix and match to build your own 12 credit package, or just enroll in the individual courses you need.<\/p>\n<h3>Online vs. In-Person CE<\/h3>\n<p>Massachusetts allows licensees to complete their CE hours entirely online. Online courses must use a timing device to ensure you cannot complete them faster than the required seat time \u2014 so plan accordingly. Online CE is available 24\/7 and can be completed at your own pace from any device with an internet connection.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table width=\"624\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"624\"><strong>\u2713\u00a0 Complete Your 12 CE Hours Online with Keep Me Certified<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Keep Me Certified offers Massachusetts-board-approved online CE courses you can complete anywhere, on any device.

Plan ahead, especially for the CORI form \u2014 it requires notarization and can\u2019t be done at the last minute.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Required Documents for All Licensees<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>CE completion certificates <\/strong>\u2014 proof that you completed all 12 hours from a licensed provider. You will upload these directly in the renewal portal.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Notarized CORI Acknowledgment Form <\/strong>\u2014 a Criminal Offender Record Information authorization form that the Board now requires for all renewals. Download the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mass.gov\/doc\/dol-cori-form\/download\">DOL CORI form from Mass.gov<\/a>, have it notarized by a notary public, and upload it with your application. This step is critical \u2014 don\u2019t skip it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Recent headshot <\/strong>\u2014 a current photo of yourself, uploaded as part of the renewal application.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Additional Requirement for Brokers<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Broker bond <\/strong>\u2014 brokers are required to upload their original surety bond as part of the renewal. If you received your bond through a provider and don\u2019t have the original, contact your bond provider directly to request it. (If your bond is through CNA Surety, you can reach them at 1-800-331-6053.) Note that the original bond can only be released to the policyholder.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Massachusetts Real Estate License Renewal Fees<\/h2>\n<p>Renewal fees are paid through the eLIPSE portal at the time you submit your application. The current fees set by the Massachusetts Division of Occupational Licensure are:<\/p>\n<table width=\"624\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"312\"><strong>License Type<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"312\"><strong>Renewal Fee<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"312\">Salesperson<\/td>\n<td width=\"312\">$103<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"312\">Broker<\/td>\n<td width=\"312\">$142<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"312\">Business (brokerage)<\/td>\n<td width=\"312\">$221<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"312\">School<\/td>\n<td width=\"312\">$264<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mass.gov\/how-to\/renew-a-real-estate-license\">Massachusetts Division of Occupational Licensure \u2014 Renew a Real Estate License<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Step-by-Step: How to Renew Your Massachusetts Real Estate License<\/h2>\n<p>Here is the complete renewal process from start to finish:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Step 1: Complete Your 12 Hours of CE<\/h3>\n<p>Before you can submit your renewal application, you must finish all 12 CE hours from a state-approved provider. Do this well before your expiration date \u2014 at least 10\u201314 days early is a good rule of thumb, since your CE provider needs time to report your completion to the state.<\/p>\n<p>Ready to get started? <a href=\"https:\/\/ma.keepmecertified.com\/\">Browse Keep Me Certified\u2019s Massachusetts CE courses \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Get Your CORI Form Notarized<\/h3>\n<p>Download the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mass.gov\/doc\/dol-cori-form\/download\">DOL CORI Authorization Form<\/a> from the Mass.gov website, complete it, and have it notarized by a licensed notary public. This form authorizes the Board to run a criminal background check. Do not wait on this \u2014 finding a notary and getting it signed can take a few days if you\u2019re not prepared.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3 (Brokers Only): Locate Your Bond<\/h3>\n<p>If you hold a broker license, track down your original surety bond. If you can\u2019t find it, contact your bond provider directly. You\u2019ll need to upload the original as part of your renewal application.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Step 4: Log In to the eLIPSE Portal<\/h3>\n<p>Massachusetts processes all real estate license renewals through the <a href=\"https:\/\/occupationallicensingandpermitting.mass.gov\/madol\/s\/\">eLIPSE online portal<\/a> (the Division of Occupational Licensure\u2019s digital licensing platform). If this is your first time using eLIPSE, you\u2019ll need to register with your license number and personal information.<\/p>\n<p>For a walkthrough of the portal, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mass.gov\/info-details\/dol-elipse-how-to-guides\">DOL eLIPSE How-to-Guides<\/a> page on Mass.gov.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 5: Upload Your Documents<\/h3>\n<p>Once logged in, you\u2019ll complete your renewal application and upload:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>CE completion certificates<\/li>\n<li>Notarized CORI form<\/li>\n<li>Recent headshot<\/li>\n<li>Broker bond (brokers only)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Step 6: Pay the Renewal Fee<\/h3>\n<p>Payment is made securely through the eLIPSE platform. The fee is $103 for salespersons and $142 for brokers.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Step 7: Receive Your Updated License<\/h3>\n<p>Your renewed license will be issued digitally through eLIPSE. Processing the renewal is no longer immediate. The state needs to run a background check on you. Submit your renewal paperwork early to avoid any interruption in your ability to practice.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>What Happens If You Miss Your Renewal Deadline?<\/h2>\n<p>Letting your license expire is more than just an inconvenience \u2014 it means you cannot legally practice real estate or collect commissions in Massachusetts until your license is reinstated. Here\u2019s what your options look like depending on how long your license has been expired:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Recently Expired (Less Than 2 Years)<\/h3>\n<p>If your license has expired but it\u2019s been less than two years, you can still renew it online through eLIPSE. You\u2019ll need to complete your 12 CE hours (if you haven\u2019t already) and pay a late renewal fee in addition to the standard renewal fee.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Expired More Than 2 Years<\/h3>\n<p>If your license has been expired for more than two years, you\u2019ll need to go through a formal reinstatement process by submitting a Request for Reinstatement Application directly to the Board. Contact the Board at <a href=\"mailto:realestateboard@mass.gov\">realestateboard@mass.gov<\/a> or call 617-701-8661 for guidance.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Inactive License<\/h3>\n<p>If you previously chose to renew your license as inactive, reactivation requires completing the 12-hour CE requirement and submitting a license reactivation form to the Board via email. This process typically takes four to six weeks to process, so plan accordingly if you need your license active by a specific date.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Understanding Your License Status<\/h2>\n<p>Massachusetts recognizes three possible license statuses for real estate agents:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Active: <\/strong>Your license is current and you are authorized to practice real estate, earn commissions, and represent buyers and sellers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Inactive: <\/strong>Your license is on file with the Board but you may not actively practice real estate or represent clients. Inactive licensees can receive referral fees in some circumstances. CE is not required to renew as inactive, making this a useful option if you\u2019re taking a temporary break from the industry.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Expired: <\/strong>Your license has lapsed. You cannot practice real estate or receive any compensation until your license is reinstated.<\/li>\n<li>There is NO &#8220;referral&#8221; status, even if you just do referrals. Your license is active, inactive, or expired.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Check Your License Status<\/h2>\n<p>You can verify the status of your Massachusetts real estate license at any time through the Board\u2019s online license lookup tool. This is also useful for checking your license expiration date if you\u2019re unsure when your renewal is due. Visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mass.gov\/how-to\/check-a-license-or-registration\">Massachusetts license verification page<\/a> to search for your license.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>How to Contact the Massachusetts Real Estate Board<\/h2>\n<p>If you have questions about your renewal that aren\u2019t covered here, the Board is available to help:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Phone: <\/strong>617-701-8661 (Monday\u2013Friday, 9:00 AM \u2013 5:00 PM)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Email: <\/strong><a href=\"mailto:realestateboard@mass.gov\">realestateboard@mass.gov<\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>In Person (New address): <\/strong>One Federal Street, Suite 600, Boston, MA 02110 (9:00 AM \u2013 5:00 PM)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Official Renewal Page: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mass.gov\/how-to\/renew-a-real-estate-license\">https:\/\/www.mass.gov\/how-to\/renew-a-real-estate-license<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Ready to Knock Out Your CE Hours?<\/h2>\n<p>The fastest way to get your renewal done is to complete your CE first.
