Washington State Real Estate License Tips

Alright, so here is the nuts and bolts of this site – the Washington real estate license requirements. Due to many historical problems, states have had to adopt laws and policies around the commerce of real property. And in the state of Washington, the powers that be have come up with the following requirements. Now, as a disclaimer, I am not a lawyer, and therefore this should not be taken as legal advice.

That said, here is the short list of things that you’ll have to do, in order to get a Washington real estate license:

• Be at least 18 years old
• Successfully complete a 60 hour real estate fundamentals course within 5 years prior to applying for examination
• Achieve a passing score on the final examination
• Submit a license application with the state

When you compare these requirements with other states’ requirements, this isn’t all that difficult. In other states, you may be required to take over 200 hours of coursework. And doing a 60 hour course online should not be that difficult. You’re here, you know the value of becoming a real estate agent, you’ve seen the requirements, the only thing left to do is go out there and get it!

Take it from me, I have a real estate license, and make money each and every month just from my property management business, let alone buying and selling property.

It’s very worth it to get your license.
