* Important Information for Renewals due by 7/31/2010 *

Our office will close on Friday 7/30 at 4:30pm and will not re-open until 8:00am on Monday, 8/2. If you have any problems processing your renewal before midnight on 7/31, please review the following information and options:

You may renew online by clicking on the appropriate "Renew Your Real Estate License" or “Renew Your Appraiser Classification” link in the left-hand column of this page.

You will need your license or classification number and password to access your records. If you have not established a password, you may do so by leaving the password field blank and providing your Social Security Number and Date of Birth when prompted. (If this does not work for you, you may have a previously established password.)

If you have forgotten your previously established password, click on the "Forgot your Password" link, located to the right of the password box.

If you would rather renew by mail, the standard fee is $125.00 and “Mail-in Renewal” applications are available in the "Forms and Applications" section of this website. The discounted rate for an online renewal is $100.00.

Mail-in applications post-marked by 8/2/10 will not be subject to a late fee however, online renewals must be processed by midnight on 7/31/10 to avoid the $100.00 late fee.

All approved Schools in GA are required to certify and post course completion information electronically, via our website. We do not process that information at GREC. If you just completed a course, most Schools will not be able to post it until the next business day, at the earliest.

If all required courses have not been posted by your renewal deadline, it is recommended that you renew to Inactive status, to avoid a late fee. After the courses have been posted, you may activate your license by submitting a "Change Application". There is no fee required to re-activate.

Appraisal Management Companies:

Georgia House Bill 1050, which requires Appraisal Management Companies in Georgia to register with the Georgia Real Estate Appraisers Board, was signed by the Governor on June 2, 2010. The Board is currently working on regulations and procedures in order to implement the program by September 1, 2010.

An application to register an AMC in Georgia will be available in September. Please check back to this website for updates.
