Additional Requirements for all Renewals:

The New Mexico Real Estate Commission requires a background check on all applicants for a broker license (new or renewal). Fingerprinting is a required part of the background check and is handled through the Live Scan system.

You must register at https://www.aps.gemalto.com before you complete the live fingerprint scan for matching with a national arrest record database. You will find a full Fingerprint Source List for New Mexico Residents on the commission’s website at http://www.rld.state.nm.us/uploads/files/Fingerprint%20locations.docx

All students will have six months to complete their course from the date of purchase.
