🏛️ State License Law 📍 Wisconsin

📖 What you need to know

Client and earnest-money funds in Wisconsin must be held in a broker's designated trust (escrow) account, kept separate from the broker's own money, with the broker responsible for proper accounting and recordkeeping. Commingling trust funds with personal or business funds is prohibited and is a common cause of discipline by the Real Estate Examining Board. Wisconsin salesperson licenses are renewed periodically, and licensees must complete the required continuing-education courses before each renewal to keep the license active.
