You will need a license to sell real estate commercially in Oregon. After completing a series, you can obtain a license as a broker by passing the Oregon real-estate exam. The licensing process can take approximately six months. You can speed up the process if you start early. A full-time student can usually complete the course within two months.
To begin the process, you must complete at least 150 hours online and classroom instruction. Online courses can be offered by an approved state education provider in different formats. Some courses are self-paced and convenient. Another option is to sign up for a traditional, in person course. If you choose the latter, you will need permission from your local school.
After completing the required coursework, you'll need to submit your application and pay a fee. You will also need to undergo a background check. This can take up four weeks to complete and may include fingerprinting. Once you have passed your background check, an Applicant ID will be issued to you. You will then be able to register for an eLicense profile and begin your journey towards obtaining your license.
Your eLicense account will have information about all your courses and their completion status. Final exams are also required. A comprehensive final can contain as few as 20 questions while more advanced courses can have up to 150.
The exam is designed to test your knowledge about key topics in property valuation and law. It's split into two sections. One is the State section which takes approximately 75 minutes, while the other is the National section which takes around two hours. The State section scores about 60 percent and the National section scores around 80 percent.
The total number of questions for the real-estate broker's exam is 130. Candidates can either sit in person at testing centers or online for the exam. In either case the first part is focused on national laws and the second, state laws.
It is important to research before you make a decision on whether you want to take an online or in-person class. The state's website contains information about licensing requirements and background checks. If you have any concerns or questions, the state's Real Estate Agency can help.
It is important to study for the Oregon realty exam in order to achieve a good result. It's not an easy task to pass the Oregon real estate exam on your first attempt. Pre-licensing courses are a great way to improve your chances of passing the test on your first attempt.
To receive your license, you must be at least 18 years old, have a high school diploma or GED, and pass a background check. The State of Oregon website provides information on the exam and how to apply.
