--- UPCOMING FEBRUARY EVENTS --- For all upcoming events please visit out calendar. Renewal Reminder for your NMLS License Endorsement The renewal period for MLO license endorsement is November 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011. The Department of Real Estate (DRE) requires individuals who need to renew their MLO license endorsement to complete eight hours of NMLS-approved CE (Continuing Education). CE must be taken through NMLS-approved sponsors. (Note: 45 hours of DRE-qualified CE cannot apply to the MLO license endorsement CE requirement.) Failing to renew a MLO license endorsement by January 1, 2012 will result in an existing license endorsement status changed to "Terminated Failed to Renew" and requires that the licensee cease performing all activities that require a MLO endorsement. Visit the DRE website for more information: www.dre.ca.gov/lic_safe.html. Don't wait until it is too late! C.A.R.

C.A.R. and NAR know that when brokers tell their agents that something is important, agents listen.  This is especially true when brokers ask their agents to respond to Red Alerts or Calls-for-Action on legislative issues that will affect their business. Thats why both organizations have started broker involvement programs to increase member participation in Red Alerts and Calls-for-Action so that we can successfully pass good laws and fight bad legislation. NARs Broker Involvement program is designed to have brokers easily help mobilize their agents. Its free and very, very easy. Details for Broker Involvement can be found here: http://www.car.org/governmentaffairs/getinvolved/brokerinvolvement/          Thanks for visiting the Inglewood Board of REALTORS site.
