To renew your New York State Real Estate License, you must complete the process online via the Department of State's eACCESSny website. During the renewal process, it's crucial to affirm that you've met all Continuing Education requirements by responding "Yes" to the related question. If "No" is selected by mistake, the Department of State will require submission of all original course completion certificates before proceeding with your license renewal. Additionally, it's important to retain these original certificates, as they may be requested by the DOS in case of a license audit.

Lieb School offers on-demand video classes that provide the flexibility to stream at any time, 24/7.

Lieb School's online classes stand out because they are developed and taught by Attorney Andrew Lieb, a leading figure in real estate brokerage litigation. With his extensive experience representing major brokerage firms nationwide, Andrew brings a wealth of practical insights directly to his teaching, using case law and personal experiences as the foundation. As a seasoned national trainer who has educated over 15,000 real estate agents and attorneys, Andrew's dynamic presence extends beyond the classroom into the media, where he's been featured on TV and quoted by top publications like the NY Times and Business Insider. His classes are engaging, video-based, and filled with substantive content, offering a learning experience far beyond reading text and answering quiz questions.

At Lieb School, you're not limited to purchasing just the 22.5 CE credit packages; you can also buy courses individually, giving you the freedom to focus on specific areas of interest or need. However, our 22.5 CE credit packages, offered at a discounted rate of $125, are a popular choice among students for the value they provide. When you select a package, you have the option to complete all courses or just a selection of the classes included, based on your preferences and requirements. Additionally, we offer an "Unlimited Access" package that grants you access to any of our classes for a period of 6 months. This option is perfect for those who wish to dive deeper into their real estate education and explore a wide range of topics at their own pace.

Once you register for a Lieb School class, you have a 6-month window to complete it. If the class is not completed within this period, it will automatically expire, and you would need to repurchase the course if you wish to complete it after this time frame.

According to §177.6 of the Real Estate License Law, the Department of State may grant extensions for continuing education completion in cases of bona fide hardship. If you find yourself in such a situation before your license expires, you are required to submit a written request for an extension to the Department of State. This request should be accompanied by the completed renewal form, the applicable fee, and original documentation that provides evidence of your hardship, such as medical records.

You are required to renew your license and ensure that all 22.5 credits have been completed by your license renewal deadline. Lieb School facilitates this process by reporting your completed credits, which are essential for license renewal, directly to the Department of State, Bureau of Educational Standards. Upon completing each class, we submit your information to confirm the successful completion of courses. The certificates you receive serve as proof of your credit hours and should be kept safely, as they may be required by the DOS in case of an audit. While Lieb School handles the submission of your completion records to the Department of State, the responsibility of renewing your license rests with you.

You can reach out to the instructor by following the instructions provided in the "Course Orientation" section found at the beginning of each course. If you have questions or comments about the course material, you can also use the comment feature located next to each section of the course. When the instructor replies to your comment, you'll get an email notification, and the comment icon will turn blue to indicate a new response. For wider discussions or to share thoughts with fellow students, consider posting on Lieb School's Facebook Page. The instructor tries to reply within 5 business days, but please keep in mind that immediate or detailed answers are not always possible. Remember, these communications are meant for understanding course material better and do not amount to legal, financial, or professional advice.

While it is technically possible to access the classes on a mobile phone, we do not recommend it due to potential limitations in user experience and functionality.

Due to the nature of digital content delivery over the internet, it's impossible to "return" the content, making all purchases final and non-refundable. However, Lieb School may, under exceptional circumstances and at its discretion, consider refund requests if a written appeal is submitted within 7 days of purchase. Eligibility for a refund requires verifiable proof of a significant, uncontrollable hardship that prevents access to the purchased material, or if a technical issue on the liebschool.digitalchalk.com website or system prevents material access. To request a refund under these conditions, you must email your sales receipt to refund@liebschool.com with the subject "Hardship Refund Request" within the 7-day period following your transaction.

Currently, Lieb School specializes in providing continuing education courses exclusively for New York real estate brokers, associate brokers, and salespersons who are already licensed. To receive credit for our classes, participants must hold a valid license with the New York Department of State. We do not offer pre-licensing education at this time.

Yes, quizzes are a standard requirement for all online schools, including Lieb School. Our quizzes are administered online through our platform and consist of multiple-choice questions. To aid in your preparation, we provide a study guide for each quiz. Importantly, you have the opportunity to take these quizzes multiple times if necessary, ensuring that you can pass and fully understand the course material.

Real estate licensees are responsible for updating their continuing education status with both the NY Department of State and their local board and broker. Each company may have a unique process for this, so it's advisable to consult with your broker or board for guidance. To renew your New York State Real Estate License, you must complete the online process via the Department of State's eACCESSny website. During renewal, it's crucial to confirm that you've fulfilled all Continuing Education requirements by selecting "Yes" to the related question. Choosing "No" in error will prompt the Department of State to request submission of all original course completion certificates before proceeding with your license renewal. Retaining these certificates is important, as they may be requested in case of a license audit.

In New York, every real estate broker and salesperson must complete 22.5 hours of continuing education every two years to maintain their license, a requirement that applies to all licensees, including those previously exempt. Lieb School offers various packages that fulfill this requirement, covering essential topics such as 3 hours on Fair Housing and/or Discrimination, 2.5 hours on Ethical Business Practices, 1 hour on Recent Legal Matters related to New York real estate practices, 1 hour on the Law of Agency (which increases to 2 hours for those in their initial licensing cycle), 2 hours on Implicit Bias Awareness, and 2 hours on Cultural Competency Training. These comprehensive offerings ensure professionals not only meet their educational obligations but also enhance their expertise and service in the real estate industry.

Lieb School may report you to the Department of State for acts of untrustworthiness in the practice of Real Estate Brokerage.

Yes, you can renew your expired real estate license in New York within two years of its expiration date. If your license has been expired for more than two years, it becomes null and void. You will need to retake and pass the NY licensing examination and reapply for a license. To renew your expired license within the two-year window, you can do so online if there is a broker of record in place and you have completed the required continuing education. Continuing education is necessary for renewal within the two-year period. However, if your license has been expired for over two years, you won't need to complete qualifying education again as long as you have a record in the Department of State system or can prove that you were previously issued a license. To start the renewal process, ensure you meet the requirements and proceed with the online renewal process through the New York Department of State website. For further assistance or information, you can visit the New York Department of State website or contact their Licensing Services Division directly.
