The steps to become a real estate agent
1. Take
the licensing course
To become a licensed real estate agent you must take the real estate pre-licensing course from an accredited real estate licensing school. Each state’s pre-licensing course topics and hours will vary. Once you complete the course, obtain the official real estate transcripts or a certificate of completion from the school, which is required for your license application.
2. Pass
the real estate exam
After you complete your pre-licensing course and pass your final course exam, you’ll schedule your state licensing real estate exam. While some of the questions on the state exam are outlined in your pre-licensing course, you will be on stronger footing if you take a real estate test prep program to ensure you’re studying for the right exam material and have access to practice exams.
