Rustico, your post prompted me to lookup real estate licensing information. Good advice. It’s a small investment of time and money for anyone considering buying property. If anything, the knowledge gained from going through the process is well worth it.
It looks like anyone who can pass the 3 real estate classes and the exam can get a RE license. Should be easy for anyone with a high school education. Lawyers automatically qualify. http://www.dre.cahwnet.gov/saleslic.htm
