Q: What is Georgia continuing education?

Georgia continuing education is the legal requirement that licensed real estate agents complete 36 hours of ongoing real estate education during each four-year license renewal period. You cannot renew your real estate license until your course work has been completed through a GREC-approved real estate school.

You simply need to: Complete 36 hours of GREC-approved continuing education courses (at least three of your 36 hours need to be on license law). Your real estate school will automatically notify GREC of your course completion electronically, so you don’t need to manually submit a certificate of completion. Submit your license renewal online or by mail, along with your renewal fee. The standard renewal fee is $125, but you get a $25 discount if you renew online. That’s it! Nothing to it.

Q: How often do I need to take Georgia continuing education courses?

You must complete Georgia continuing education courses every four years before your license renewal.

Q: How do I report my course completion to the Georgia Real Estate Commission?

No need! AceableAgent will automatically report your course completion to GREC on your behalf.

Q: What if I am renewing my real estate license for the first time?

If this is your first time renewing, you will need to take the 25-hour Salesperson Post-License course. You will then need to take an additional 11 hours of continuing education within the next three years of your first renewal. Learn more about AceableAgent's Georgia Post-Licensing Course.

Georgia Continuing Education With AceableAgent

Why do I need to take continuing education courses?

Your real estate education isn’t done when you get your Georgia real estate license. Professionals know there’s always more to learn. Plus, getting regular refresher courses on some basics is always a good idea, too, because, let’s face it, some of that gets lost in the day-to-day hustle of prospecting, showing homes, writing contracts, and closing deals! That’s why the Georgia Real Estate Commission (GREC) requires continuing education courses for licensed real estate agents. To keep your Georgia real estate license active (or reactivate it after an inactive period), you must complete 36 hours of continuing education courses during every four-year period, which must include three hours of real estate license law.

How do I renew my Georgia real estate license?

Renewing your Georgia license Renewing Your Georgia Real Estate License Blogis a relatively quick and easy process that can be completed as early as four months before your license expiration date. You simply need to:

Complete 36 hours of GREC-approved continuing education courses (at least three of your 36 hours need to be on license law).
Your real estate school will automatically notify GREC of your course completion electronically, so you don’t need to manually submit a certificate of completion.
Submit your license renewal online or by mail, along with your renewal fee. The standard renewal fee is $125, but you get a $25 discount if you renew online. That’s it! Nothing to it.

What happens if I don’t renew my Georgia real estate license?

If you don’t renew your license by midnight on the expiration date, your real estate license will lapse, and you must stop all actual estate-related activities. It is possible to renew a lapsed license, but it requires jumping through a few administrative hoops. You would need to:

Pay a late fee,
Submit a “secure and verifiable document” for identification purposes,
And submit a “notarized affidavit” as detailed in the Lawful Presence Verification formDownloads VLP_Form_and_Affidavit.pdf?dt=DateTime.Now.Ticks.ToString(); Certification (if not already on file).

And in some cases, your license might be renewed, but only to an inactive status. This can happen if your continuing education coursework isn’t complete or if you wait more than 30 days after your license expiration date to renew. In this case, you must also submit a Change ApplicationWp Content Uploads Pdfs GRECChangeApplication.pdf Grec.state.ga.us to change your inactive to active license.

You only have up to a year to renew your license. If you want to resume your real estate activities more than a year after your license expiration date, you must submit a Reinstatement ApplicationWp Content Uploads Pdfs GRECIndividualReinstatementFees.pdf Grec.state.ga.us and applicable fees.

"Aceable was recommended to me instead of an in person classroom setting. So happy that I have gone with Aceable, I am able to go at my own pace and the program can be saved when you want to stop at a certain place and then resume later."
