HOW TO TRANSFER YOUR LICENSE

Please see the step by step instructions below on how to transfer your license to our firm.

1) Please call your broker, Joe Rodriguez, to provide the information he will need to transfer your license.

2) After speaking with Joe, he will assist you with transferring your license via the TREC online portal. You will receive an email from TREC directly shortly after Joe initiates this transfer request.

3) You will need to log-in via the link provided in the email from TREC, fill out your information, and pay the TREC transfer fee.

4) After your license has been activated with our firm, please contact Joe directly to sign your board of Realtors/MLS transfer or membership forms.

If you prefer to do the transfer process by hard copy forms instead of online, please let your broker Joe Rodriguez know. You will need either an SF-1 or SF-3, depending on your current license status. Joe will be able to assist you with this. We prefer the online route, as it’s much more expedient and efficient.

The links to the SF-1 and SF-3 forms can be found here. You do not need these forms if you are using the online portal.
