Who Must Obtain a Real Estate License?
A real estate license is required of individuals who are to be employed as real estate salespersons under the supervision of a licensed broker. A person who does not immediately intend to be employed by a broker may obtain a license. However, in this instance, no real estate activity may be performed. The license authorizes real estate activity only if the salesperson is in the employ of a licensed broker. It does not authorize the salesperson to act as an independent agent. So, anyone who has a real estate license must be signed up under a licensed broker in order to sell real estate in the state of California.
You must be 18 years of agent in order to apply for a real estate license in the state of California. Each applicant must qualify in the appropriate written examination in California and meet all other requirements. State residency is not a requirement to become licensed.
California Real Estate License applicants must be honest and truthful. Conviction of a crime (a felony or a crime of moral turpitude) may result in the denial of a license. The failure to reveal a criminal conviction on an original license application may also result in the denial of a license.
In addition to the pre-license courses, the additional costs to obtain a real estate license include a sixty-dollar examination fee (paid to the California Department of Real Estate when you schedule your real estate exam) and a filing fee of $245.00 for licensing.
