So, you're interested in becoming a real estate agent but you don't know where to start. Well the process is a bit more involved than just sending in an application but nowhere near as time consuming or expensive as enrolling in a college.

I'm Joey with the CE shop here to tell you that getting your Texas real estate license is as easy as following these six steps.

To start you must be at least 18 years old and either be a U.S citizen or a lawfully admitted alien.

Then you'll complete 180 hours of approved pre-licensing education and pass the course final exams.

Both are pre-licensing and course final exams can be completed by purchasing one of our Texas pre-licensing packages at TheCEShop.com

After completing the first two steps you must submit your license application and provide fingerprints for a background check. Once your exam application is approved you will then need to schedule and pass the Texas real estate salesperson examination. This test is comprised of two portions covering both state and National requirements.

Next you will need to find an experienced broker to be your sponsor. It's important to find the right broker to work with since this person will serve as your mentor as you start your new career in real estate. And finally, once you have fulfilled all six steps congratulations you will officially be a licensed sales agent in the state of Texas.
