How to become a real estate agent in your state

Each guide answers what people type by state: the licence requirements, the steps in order, what it costs in total, how long it takes, how the exam works and how many pass it, whether another state's licence carries over, how renewal works, what agents earn, and which brokerages to look at once licensed.

Every figure is read from the state's licensing board or the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and carries the date it was read

How these pages are made

Read from the board, dated

Every figure names the official page it came from and the day it was read. Requirements change; the date tells you how current the page is.

No borrowing

Where a board publishes no figure, the page says so. Nothing is filled in from a school's summary, a forum or memory, and the build fails on an unsourced number.

Independent

No school, brokerage or board owns this site. Pages that carry affiliate links to pre-licence schools say so at the top, and schools are ordered by what the state publishes or alphabetically.

Guides are published one state at a time as each board's pages are read. Built September 5, 2026.
