Lets get your license
There are 3 parts to this process the IPLA, State of Indiana, & NIRA. The IPLA is where you apply for your license. The State part is where you manage your license. The NIRA part is where you join the MLS and become a REALTOR. You will need your course certificate, Broker exam score sheet(s), Supplemental form (attached below)
Access Indiana & IPLA
On the IPLA Website scroll down to “I Want To”. Click Apply for a new license.
You will be prompted to log in to your access Indiana account. If you do not have one click Register for an Access Indiana Account. This is where things can get a bit tricky. Sometimes after creating an account you need to go back and click the Apply for a new license link on the IPLA and resign in to Access Indiana. Your goal is to get to the MyLicense One screen that looks like THIS. From here click Initial Application.
