Maine sales agent to associate broker: common questions

Can I renew a Maine sales agent license?

No. The sales agent license has a two-year, non-renewable term. To keep practicing, you move up to an associate broker license.

What do I need for an associate broker license?

Two years of practice as an actively licensed sales agent and the 60-hour Associate Broker Course, with its Documented Field Experience Form, completed with a final grade of 75% or higher.

Should a sales agent go inactive?

The Commission doesn't recommend it, because the license is non-renewable and two years of active affiliation is required for the associate broker license.
