How New York Real Estate Broker license verification works

A Real Estate Broker in New York is licensed by the NY Real Estate Commission. PrimaryCheck looks the license up live at the board's public verification system (board lookup) by license number, or by name when no number is supplied. The record the board publishes is captured as evidence, hashed, and rendered into a proof PDF.

Fields returned for this board: license_number full_name first_name middle_name last_name suffix license_type license_type_code status expiry addresses relations.
