Each option provides flexibility to accommodate your needs. Be sure to complete all CE requirements and gather the necessary documentation before starting the renewal process.

If you hold additional permits, such as a Business Broker or Property Manager permit, you are required to complete specific Continuing Education (CE) hours for each permit. These hours are included as part of the mandatory 36 hours of CE required for license renewal. Here’s how it works:

• Business Broker Permit: You must complete an additional 3 hours of CE specific to Business Broker topics.
• Property Manager Permit: You must complete an additional 9 hours of CE specific to Property Management topics.

These permit-specific CE hours can be applied toward the General course requirements within the 36-hour CE total. For example, if you complete 9 hours of Property Management CE, those hours will count toward the General CE requirement.

When renewing your license, you must include the completion certificates for these permit-specific courses along with the rest of your CE documentation. Ensure that all certificates are submitted to the Nevada Real Estate Division to avoid delays in processing your renewal.

If your license is expired or inactive, there are specific steps you need to take to renew or reactivate it:

Expired License

• Steps to Renew:
  1. Complete all required Continuing Education (CE) hours, including any permit-specific CE if applicable.
  2. Pay a late renewal fee in addition to the standard renewal fee.
  3. Submit your renewal application, proof of CE completion, and payment to the Nevada Real Estate Division. Expired licenses cannot be renewed online and must be processed by mail or in person.
• Important Note: You cannot legally practice real estate in Nevada while your license is expired.

Inactive License

• Steps to Renew or Reactivate:
  1. Complete all required CE hours for your license type and any additional permit-specific CE.
  2. Submit proof of CE completion along with your renewal application.
  3. If you wish to change your status from inactive to active, you must:
     • Complete all CE requirements for an active license.
     • Submit the necessary documentation to the Nevada Real Estate Division.
• Renewal Options: Inactive licenses can be renewed online, by mail, or in person. However, status changes (e.g., inactive to active) must be processed by mail or in person.

Key Considerations

• Tracking CE Requirements: Ensure you’ve completed all required CE hours before submitting your renewal. Use tools like the ceASAP.com Continuing Education Tracking Form to stay organized and avoid missing any requirements.
• Permit Holders: If you hold additional permits (e.g., Business Broker or Property Manager), you must complete the required CE hours for those permits in addition to the general CE requirements.

By following these steps and staying proactive, you can successfully renew or reactivate your license and continue practicing real estate in Nevada.
