The first step is to Click here to see the Georgia Real Estate Commission requirements to obtain a Salesperson’s license.

The second step in becoming a real estate agent is to attend a Georgia Real Estate Commission (GREC) approved 75-hour Pre-license course.  (Our school is approved by GREC.) The Pre-license course may be taken online or in-class with an instructor. (We have online and instructor led classes available.)

The third step after completing the course instruction, is to pass a proctored course final exam.

The fourth step, after passing the course final exam, is to take the state salesperson exam.

The online course is independent study at your own pace. You can go through the course as quickly or as slowly as you prefer. Online courses are popular with students who do not live close to a classroom location, or are not able to fit an in-class course into their schedule. Online students can contact the school to ask questions if the course material is not clear.

The virtual course has the benefit of an  instructor but is done using the ZOOM program. It is a live class with a set schedule. You take the course in the comfort of your home using your computer or laptap with your webcam or camera enabled. You are able to ask the intructor questions. There is a textbook and supplemental materials for in-class students.

The in-class course has the benefit of an instructor as well as peers learning the same material at the same pace. Some students find it helpful to form study groups outside of class. There is a textbook and supplemental materials for in-class students.
