Important notice regarding changes to continuing education requirements

Last week, NYSAR President Linda Lugo emailed membership about a new law that has taken effect requiring agency-related coursework to be included within a real estate licensees' 22.5 hours of continuing education. Licensees making their first renewal are required to complete two hours of agency-related coursework while all other licensees are required to complete one hour of agency-related coursework. To help REALTORS satisfy this new requirement, the Triple Play REALTOR Convention and Trade Expo on Dec. 5-8, 2016 will include a Legal Update on agency taught by NYSAR Director of Legal Services Anthony Gatto, Esq.
