How to check California Real Estate Agent License status online.

Before you hire an agent to sell your home, you should check the status of real estate salesperson, broker, company, and corporate licensees online. California Depart of Real Estate, also known as DRE, maintains records of past, current and future (Licensee’s renewal date) information available to public.

All you need is last & first name or license number to search the records. You can also lookup a company by DBA and find out who and how many agents are registered under the particular company. This is very useful for both consumers & real estate professionals.
