Broker workflows

Broker and brokerage data in District of Columbia

Use District of Columbia license records to verify brokers, salespersons, brokerage names, and supervising-broker relationships where the regulator source provides them.

Broker license verification

Confirm whether a broker or salesperson license appears active in DC, then keep the response with source and freshness metadata for onboarding, referral, and compliance evidence.

Brokerage affiliation checks

Search by brokerage name when available, compare current affiliation details, and route exceptions to staff instead of asking them to re-check a state portal manually.

Supervising broker context

Where the source supports it, RELD exposes supervising-broker and affiliate endpoints so teams can understand which broker is tied to a licensee at the time of review.

RELD is designed for B2B real estate data workflows: broker onboarding, brokerage roster checks, referral-network reviews, MLS and proptech integrations, and recurring compliance reviews across multiple jurisdictions.

FAQ

Common questions

Is District of Columbia real estate license data available through RELD?

Yes. District of Columbia (DC) is in production. Licensee records are ingested into RELD and returned as normalized JSON through the REST API, with provenance and freshness metadata.

Is this a free public consumer lookup portal?

No. RELD is API-first for teams integrating license verification into products and operations. You call REST endpoints with an API key—similar to other B2B data APIs.

Do you sell bulk statewide file exports or database dumps?

RELD is built around programmatic access through the API (search, verify, paginate). We do not market the product as a bulk export or raw dump vendor.

How current is the data?

This jurisdiction refreshes on a weekly cadence during normal operations. Responses include timestamps you can use in compliance reviews—see also GET /api/v1/coverage with your API key for source-level freshness.
