This course is designed to assist students in passing the state exam but just as one would for any other exam a student should also study their notes and text on their own time before they take their exam to even further prepare themselves for testing. Once you receive your salesperson license it may be used for either residential or commercial property - for sales or rentals. You may hold the license for future use or go to work for a broker.
The State Exam
After a student completes the pre-license course, we will provide the education certificate necessary for the exam and the toll-free phone number to schedule an appointment. The student decides when and where to take the state exam. Exam appointments should be made once a student finishes the course, the toll free number will not be given out before that time. Students have 2 years from the date you finish the course to take and pass the state exam.
The state exam consists of multiple-choice questions. A score of at least 70% is required to pass. The exam fee is $101.00, payable to the testing service on exam day.
