I would like to become a real estate agent, but it doesn’t seem like anyone is giving me the straight answer. I live in Florida and have a Bachelor of Science degree in Marketing. What do I need to do?

in all states you need a license..you have to get a course and pass a test ..go to ( real state license) in internet

seems like FL wants to hide their data and only those
wishing to give up data in advance can get it.
Anyway; most states –Fl too probably,. require attendance
at a RE school or attend at 30-45 units of specific RE classes.
Once those are completed, one must take the school test
and then, once passed, take the state test which is often
contracted out to Promissor or another testing agency
and when that is completed successfully, one
submits a formal app to the state and has a broker
lined up to HOLD one’s license.
I am available to guide you further.

state as we write]

You sign up for your license at.
After you take your pre-license class you sign up to get fingerprinted. Then after you are fingerprinted you can sign up to take your licensing test. You find out if you passed your test right at the testing center afterwards. Then you give them the info for where you will be working and they send you a license. I would go talk to real estate agencies in your city to get an idea of where you want to place your license before you take your class. It is quite frankly a pain in the **** to get through the licensing process in Florida. The application process was a whole lot harder than actually taking the test. If you are having trouble they have numbers posted on the website and they can help you. They were very friendly and helpful to me when I went through it.

Take your 63-hour prelicensing course online. This course fulfills Florida Real Estate Commission (FREC) education requirements for all persons wanting to become licensed sales associates (Florida real estate agents) in the State of Florida. You can do all this online.
An applicant for licensure as a Sales Associate must be at least 18 years of age and hold a high school diploma or its equivalent, and successfully complete this FREC-approved prelicensing course for sales associates consisting of 63 classroom-hours and covering the topics required by the FREC.
You must also achieve a minimum grade of 70% on the end-of-course examination that is administered online at the end of the course. If you fail your end-of-course examination, you must wait at least 30 days but no more than 365 days from the date of the original examination to retest.
