As we approach the last quarter of the licensing year for Alberta real estate licenses, we once again have opportunity for discounted licensing fees for those who are needing to register their license with RECA.  Here is the statement by RECA regarding upcoming discounted renewal fees:"Effective July 1 through to September 30, the licensing fee for each individual class of licence is reduced to $275. The REIX premium, if applicable, is also reduced to $100. The fee reduction applies to any industry professional who has not been registered in the current licensing year. The Assurance Fund levy does not change." ~ RECAAt Park And Protect, we also have a couple of unique options for Alberta real estate agents who are in need of registering or renewing their license. These options represent...

Temporary Real Estate License Parkingby Park And Protect There are agents who are completely inactive and yet do not want their Alberta real estate license to be deleted. These agents generally have no short term plan to return to the industry and no interest in utilizing their license status to generate referral income, they are truly only interested in temporary parking their Alberta real estate license with a brokerage to avoid the 3 year unregistered timeline at which point their entire license credentials are deleted from the Real Estate Council of Alberta list of eligible licensees. For these agents, there are few options for the temporary parking of Alberta real estate licenses. The large active traditional real estate brokerages have no interest in allowing the temporary license...

Thanks to the very generous labour mobility laws in Canada, Provincially licensed real estate professionals are now able to transfer their credentials and work in other Provinces.  While each Province has their own process and requirements to do so, it is an amazing opportunity for Real Estate Agents to be able to relocated and not lose their licensing certifications and career.  Right now the most prominent trend to capitalize upon this ability to license and work inter-provincially is evident with the quick thinking and opportunistic REALTORS, Agents and Brokers from Ontario who are eyeing the booming Alberta real estate market. Ontario real estate agents who have for years been very successful selling construction and pre-construction projects across the GTA have found these projects...

Before jumping in, you may wish to check out my last post about "what is real estate license parking" if it is a term you are unfamiliar with.There are may reasons that a REALTOR, Agent or Broker who holds a valid license in Alberta would choose to become inactive and park their alberta real estate license.  Here is a list of common reasons why a Licensee parks their real estate license: they are retiring but wish to continue to earn referral commissions from their established client list they are taking a break from actively selling due to any number of reasons (such as health, travel, change of life plans, etc) they are transitioning their career and wish to maintain their real estate license in good  standing they have spent thousands of dollars and countless hours in earning their c...
