For a real estate licensee is it mandatory to belong to NAR or IAR in Illinois?

No.  You can hold a real estate license and not be a Realtor if you don't want to be one.  Being a Realtor shows people that you adhere to a higher code of ethics than that required to only be a licensee.  You may have to be a Realtor though to participate in the local MLS.

The requirements vary by state.\nLook for your state's Real Estate Commission online. They can advise you what the requirements are in your state, and list the currently available schools.  These may be community colleges, or privately owned schools. There may be many ways to meet the requirements. Compare carefully.\n\nTexas requires several courses, the last time I checked California required only one class, if I remember correctly.

They have not updated their file to indicate that you no longer own real estate. That is why you received that notice of pre-approval. Most CU are unmanned and you have 1 person working in different departments. I work with one CU that has a member base of 11K members and only have 20 people working to service that base.

First of all you have to have to be a licensed real estate salesperson in your state. Then when you hang your license with your broker they will tell you if and which Board of Realtors® to join. You will be charged annual dues and be required to take Code of Ethics classes.

I think you have to have a real estate license to sell homes and work with a Realtor, not a mortgage company

It depends. Did you get a license as an Agent or a Broker?  The difference between the two is that an Agent, to be able to operate, needs to be hired by a licensed Broker.  So, which one are you?\n\nIf you're already licensed as an Agent, you can apply for principal broker companies such as Marcus and Millichap, REMAX Commercial, Sperry Van Ness and so on..  These companies usually require licensing o accept a new agent in their company.\n\nOn the other hand, if you're already a licensed Broker, you can go ahead and form your own real estate group with you as the principal.

If you are doing this out of the kindness of your heart, you're probably okay. But you need to be licensed before you accept _money_ for trading their account (especially if you lose the client's money and they run screaming to the authorities) For example, see the Illinois Securities Department's Admonistrative Rules (link 1). \n\nIn Illinois, I am fairly certain you would need to register as an Investment Adviser (after passing the Investment Adviser Examination).\n\nBut if you can bring accounts into a brokerage, and you are as good as you say, than why not work for one? Perhaps you can work your way up the business (or eventually start your own). The additional required licensure exams are not rocket science:\nthe basic one is the Series 7 (General Securities Representative) exam (link 2).\n\nGood luck!\n\n----- excerpt from link 1 ----\nSection 130.221 Exclusion of Certain Persons from the Definition of Investment Adviser in Section 2.11 of the Act\n\nAny person whose investment advice is limited to providing such advice to his or her employer as part of the employee's regular assigned duties, who receives no special compensation on account of such advice (other than salary and other compensation alternatives generally available to persons at a similar level of responsibility within the employer) and who is not held out to the public as an investment adviser by the employer is hereby designated as a person not within the intent of Section 2.11 of the Act pursuant to Section 2.11(6) thereof.

I don't see why not. It could be a possible conflict of interest but I am having trouble imagining a possible scenario . . . \n\n• Standard of Practice 3-7\nWhen seeking information from another REALTOR® concerning property under a management or listing agreement, REALTORS® shall disclose their REALTOR® status and whether their interest is personal or on behalf of a client and, if on behalf of a client, their representational status. (Amended 1/95)\n\nArticle 12\nREALTORS® shall be careful at all times to present a true picture in their advertising and representations to the public. REALTORS® shall also ensure that their professional status (e.g., broker, appraiser, property manager, etc.) or status as REALTORS® is clearly identifiable in any such advertising. (Amended 1/93)\n\n•; Standard of Practice 16-3\nArticle 16 does not preclude REALTORS® from contacting the client of another broker for the purpose of offering to provide, or entering into a contract to provide, a different type of real estate service unrelated to the type of service currently being provided (e.g., property management as opposed to brokerage) or from offering the same type of service for property not subject to other brokers’ exclusive agreements. However, information received through a Multiple Listing Service or any other offer of cooperation may not be used to target clients of other REALTORS® to whom such offers to provide services may be made. (Amended 1/04)

You do NOT need any licensing or required education to prepare federal income taxes.  The IRS does not require any registration or tracking of tax preparers, even though paid preparers must sign all returns & provide their tax ID (which can be a SSN if you are self employed--or you can get a personal tax id # if you don't want to put your SSN on returns).  \n\nHOWEVER, there are penalties for certain types of errors/omissions made by a tax preparer (from the IRS).  So make sure you know what you are doing.\n\nAs far as Illinois, I cannot say.  Call your local H&R Block & ask them if state certification is required they would know.  My guess is that none is required.

The first step would be to check with your local planning commission to see if the property is properly zoned for that type of activity.  Then you need to check to see if that type of facility requires any type of licensing or certification.  Your best bet is to contact a local attorney because laws vary by state.
