GET YOUR REAL ESTATE LICENSE
How to get your real estate license
Your first step to becoming a real estate agent is to pass the Florida State Licensing Exam.
I’ve listed a few great schools below.
The course you need to take is the 63 hour pre-licensing course.
This course goes by a few different names, such as:
– 63 Hour Sales Associate Pre-Licensing Course
– 63 Hour Real Estate Pre-Licensing Course
As long as the course you choose includes the words ‘Florida’ and ‘63 hour’ and is recognized by FREC, you’ve chosen the right course:
– Florida (Each state has its own rules for selling real estate.)
– 63 hour (There are many courses you can take to advance your real estate career. The 63 hour course is the course you need to pass to become licensed as a real estate agent.)
– FREC (The course you choose must be recognized by the Florida Real Estate Commission. All the schools listed on this website have FREC approved courses.)
I passed my licensing exam at the Colibri Real Estate School.
Online or classroom?
Online
Choosing to study online allows you to study at your own pace. You have access to a teacher via email, but there are no tips from the teacher on how to pass the course. It is a less expensive option than participating in an in person class.
In person
Studying in a classroom environment can be much quicker, the teacher gives you tips on how to pass the course and you get to meet other students, but it is a more expensive option. Classroom courses usually take around a week to complete.
