- Inactive or expired

- Suspended or revoked
- The commission has taken disciplinary action. The broker is not authorized to practice, and the action is on the public record.
Verifying a Connecticut real estate broker
- Licensing authority
- Real estate agents in Connecticut are licensed by the Department of Consumer Protection through the Connecticut Real Estate Commission.
- Credential number
- A Connecticut real estate credential number from the state's eLicense system. Connecticut files a salesperson under code RES and a broker under REB, where a salesperson works under a sponsoring broker, so you choose the role before entering the number.
- Renewal
- A Connecticut real estate credential shows its issue and expiration dates in the eLicense record; the status reads ACTIVE with the reason CURRENT while the license is in force.
- Disciplinary history
- Public. Connecticut's eLicense system shows the status together with a reason, and it can read ACTIVE with the reason SUSPENDED - MAY NOT PRACTICE, so a license that looks active can still be one the state has acted against; revoked and surrendered credentials show there too.
Common questions
How do I know a Connecticut real estate broker is really licensed?
Find them by credential number on the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection, Real Estate Commission's record with an active status. A real estate broker who cannot be found on the state's record is not licensed in Connecticut, whatever a website says.
What does an expired or inactive license mean?
The license is on file but not current, so the real estate broker cannot practice on it until it is renewed or reactivated. The record shows the expiration date.
Can I see if a Connecticut real estate broker has been disciplined?
Public. Connecticut's eLicense system shows the status together with a reason, and it can read ACTIVE with the reason SUSPENDED - MAY NOT PRACTICE, so a license that looks active can still be one the state has acted against; revoked and surrendered credentials show there too.
