In this guide, we break down how you can go about completing your Indiana Real Estate License Renewal, detailing how much this will cost, as well as what continuing education (CE) requirements you will need to complete before submitting your application.

Indiana Real Estate Continuing Education

Note: If your license was issued on or after July 1 2014, you will be required to complete 30 hours of commission-approved post-license education within two years of your license’s issuance date. These 30 hours satisfy any CE requirements that would have otherwise been required in the first two years.

Inactive Indiana Real Estate Brokers

In Indiana, your license will become inactive if you fail to renew it on time.

Keep in mind that you will not be able to engage in any real estate sales or brokerage activity with an inactive license.

Note: You will be able to renew your license for up to three years after its expiration date at no extra cost, through an Application for Reinstatement submitted either online or by mail.
