Appraisal

RELMS is no longer an active license management system. Please review the detailed instructions below to access our new Online Management System.

To access the new system, all licensees will be required to set up a UtahID account. Licensees that have renewed their license recently will already have set up this account and can access it through this link. UtahID is a secure, single sign-on platform that allows you to access various Utah State Government services online with one account. This new UtahID account needs to be set up with the SAME EMAIL ADDRESS as the one on file with the Division of Real Estate for your license. If the email addresses do not match, there will be complications linking your license to your dashboard. Be sure to update your records with the Division to ensure we have the correct email address on file.

Here's how to set up your UtahID account in two steps:

Step 1: Create a UtahID account

Go to the UtahID website: https://idhelp.utah.gov/
Click on "Account Creation"
Follow the on-screen instructions to create your username/email and password

Step 2: Link your UtahID to your License

Log out of the UtahID website
Go to the Online Management System: https://utahdoc.mylicenseone.com/
Log in using your new UtahID username/email and password
Locate the "Existing License/Registration Holders" section
- Your license may already be listed
- If not, enter in your full license number to search
- If the system is unable to find your license, please read the helpful tips below

Helpful Tips

Do not copy and paste the license number when searching
Make sure to type the full number, including the last four digits - ex. 12345-CG00
Try searching just the full license number and link - if you are unable to find it, please email the Division at realestate@utah.gov for the Registration Code.
Make sure the email address used for UtahID matches what is on file for your license.

Yes. The FBI only allows the fingerprinting of an individual based upon a specific, unique statute which authorizes their fingerprinting. Since the statutory reason for a real estate and appraisal license are found under different sections of the Utah State Code, individuals holding both a real estate and appraisal license are required to enroll in the RapBack system when they renew each of their licenses. Licensees cannot use the same fingerprint cards for RapBack enrollment in both professions.
