Bill > A05169

This bill modifies the Real Property Law by extending the period during which a real estate broker or salesperson whose license has been revoked is ineligible for relicensing from one year to three years. Additionally, the bill requires that any license suspension or revocation be publicly disclosed on the New York State Open Data website (data.ny.gov), specifically on the department of state's listing of active real estate salespersons and brokers. This means that when a professional's license is suspended or revoked, that information will now be more transparently available to the public, potentially helping consumers make more informed decisions when choosing a real estate professional. The changes will take effect on the first day of January following the bill's passage into law, providing a clear timeline for implementation of these new requirements.
