Become an agent in 3 steps — it's that easy.
Step 1. Complete
your pre-licensing education
As a prospective agent, you’re required to take real estate pre-licensing courses from an approved licensing school (like us!). Once you’ve completed courses, be sure to obtain your official transcripts or certificate of completion; this is required to complete your real estate license application.
Step 2. Pass
your real estate exam
Once you’ve completed pre-licensing courses and passed the final exam, it’s time to schedule your state licensing real estate exam. Likely, you’ll encounter questions on this exam that you didn’t cover in pre-licensing curriculum, so be sure to look for exam prep programs that will highlight practice questions for your state.

Hear what they have to say.
The course work was very thorough and taught me more than enough to easily pass the state exam on my first try! I loved being able to work at my own pace.
I loved that the site was streamlined and very easy to use. The courses were laid out step by step and it was definitely “express”! I finished the courses quicker than expected. The Exam Prep Master program was one of my favorite tools. I know I passed because of that!
It was easy to navigate and keep track of my progress. If you need a flexible system that allows for other things in your schedule this is the system for you.
I love that I can go at my own pace! With two small kids at home, it was tough for me at times and I was unable to finish within the six month time-frame, but I purchased the extension and spoke with someone about my situation. They generously extended my course even further than I expected, and now I am almost done! I would not have been able to finish if it wasn’t for the woman who kindly extended my course! I’m truly grateful!
Real Estate Express surpassed my expectations in every way — quality of content, ease of navigating the website, and immediate response time to my questions with regard to support.
Very thorough. I entered the state exam with a lot of confidence, and after reviewing material, re-taking the quizzes and completing the course exam, I was left with a strong knowledge base with which to pass the exam to get my license!
