The 5 Steps to Obtain a Real Estate License

1.       Complete the 48-Hour Pre-Exam Course

·        Receive a certificate of completion on the last day of class (In-Class Day) or after passing an end-of-course test (Evening Hybrid, Online or Home Study).

·        The sole purpose of the Pre-Exam Course is to prepare the student to pass the Missouri Real Estate Licensing Exam at AMP/PSI.

2.       Take and pass the Missouri Real Estate Licensing Exam through AMP/PSI

·       Schedule your test with the AMP/PSI Testing Center immediately after completing the 48-Hour Pre-Exam Course by visiting their website at www.GoAmp.com or calling (800) 345-6559.

·        You will need to pass both the National and State portions of the exam.

3.       Complete the 24-Hour Missouri Real Estate Practice (MREP) Course

·        This course is completed as either home study or online AFTER passing the 48-Hour Pre-Exam Course.

·        We also recommend that you complete this course after passing the licensing exam at AMP/PSI.

·        Receive a certificate of completion after passing the 24-Hour MREP online end-of-course test.

4.       Have Fingerprinting & Background Check Completed by a State Approved Vendor

·        Fingerprinting and a federal criminal history background check must be completed by a state approved vendor in order to obtain a real estate license in Missouri.

·        See below for more information about the fingerprinting and background check requirement, or contact the Missouri Real Estate Commission (MREC) at (573) 751-2628.

5.       Apply for Your Missouri Salesperson’s Real Estate License

·        The broker that you have selected to work with will sign your license application and send it to the Missouri Real Estate Commission (MREC).

·        Your license application must be submitted and received by the MREC prior to the 6-month expiration date of your 48-Hour Pre-Exam Course. Applications received after the expiration date will be denied by the MREC. Your expiration date is printed on the bottom of your 48-Hour Pre-Exam certificate of completion.

·        Once your application is processed and accepted, the MREC will send your license to be held by your selected broker.

In-Class Day, Evening Hybrid or Online – Which One? 

48-Hour Pre-Exam – In-Class Day:
The Pre-Exam IN-CLASS DAY classes meet in a traditional classroom setting and run seven weekdays (Monday through Friday, and then the following Monday & Tuesday) from 9:00am until 4:30pm. Although most students will spend additional study time outside of class, the required 48 hours of the course are spent in the classroom. 100% attendance is required for credit.  

48-Hour Pre-Exam – Evening Hybrid:
The Pre-Exam EVENING HYBRID course is called “hybrid” because it is half in-class and half home study... The instructor covers some of the course material in-class and then the students cover the rest of the material on their own at home between classes. The Evening Hybrid classes meet for seven evening sessions, twice a week (usually Mondays and Thursdays) from 6:00pm until 9:30pm. Because part of the Evening Hybrid course is completed as home study, the Missouri Real Estate Commission requires that all students must pass a 50 question end of course test to receive a certificate of completion. Students are allowed two attempts to pass the end of course test. 

48-Hour Pre-Exam – Online:
We also offer our Pre-Exam course ONLINE. The Online course is presented in a reading format and is completed at the student’s own pace. Online students should plan to be disciplined in scheduling and completing their study time, and for statistically best results, we recommend completing the course in 30 days or less. The Missouri Real Estate Commission requires online students to pass a 50 question end of course test to receive a certificate of completion. Students are allowed two attempts to pass the end of course test.

Online Special Offer!... We are currently offering our ONLINE students a copy of our Pre-Exam In-Class binder for NO EXTRA CHARGE. Once you have completed your registration, please contact us HERE with your first and last name and the date of your registration to request a copy of your binder. Expect shipment of your binder 3-5 days after sending your request.

24-Hour Missouri Real Estate Practice (MREP) Course:
For In-Class Day and Evening Hybrid Pre-Exam students the 24-Hour MREP course will be completed as a home study course. We have found that students find the home study format engaging and manageable. The course materials will be handed out on the last day of class. For Online Pre-Exam students the 24-Hour MREP course will be completed online through their online CBG School account. The Missouri Real Estate Commission requires that 24-Hour MREP home study and online students pass an end of course exam to receive a certificate of completion. This exam is completed online for all students.

 What Does it Cost to Get a Real Estate License? 

Many people ask what the costs are to obtain a real estate license – You should expect the following fees:

*Please note that these fees may change without notice. Contact the MREC for the most current and up to date information.

Once you obtain your license additional fees and real estate board memberships dues may be required. We recommend that you speak to the broker with which you are planning to affiliate (work with) to discuss other fees you might incur after you obtain your license.

Fingerprinting & Background Check Requirement

As a condition of licensure, all new real estate license applicants are required to have their fingerprints taken for both a Missouri State Highway Patrol (MSHP) and Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) fingerprint background check. We recommend waiting to get your fingerprinting done AFTER you have passed the AMP/PSI licensing exam but before you apply for your license. 

Fingerprinting is performed through the Missouri State Highway Patrol's approved vendor 3M/Cogent. To be fingerprinted, you must first register with the Missouri Automated Criminal History site (MACHS) at www.machs.mo.gov or by calling 1-877-862-2425. (You will need to provide the Missouri Real Estate Commission's four-digit registration number 0004 in order to schedule an appointment.) 

For more information about the fingerprinting/background check requirement see the Missouri Real Estate Commission's Fingerprinting FAQs HERE or the MREC's Information About Criminal Convictions HERE. If you have other questions regarding the required fingerprinting and background check, we recommend that you contact the Missouri Real Estate Commission at (573) 751-2628 or  http://pr.mo.gov/realestate.asp.

Missouri License for Agents Licensed in Another State

If you currently hold a license in another state and would like to obtain a license in the state of Missouri, we recommend that you contact the Missouri Real Estate Commission at (573) 751-2628 for details on the licensing requirements. To obtain your Missouri license, you will need to pass the STATE portion of the licensing exam at AMP/PSI and complete the 24-Hour Missouri Real Estate Practice (MREP) course. 

24-Hour Missouri Real Estate Practice (MREP) Course: 
The 24-Hour MREP course by itself is offered ONLINE or you may purchase the course together as a package with our Missouri State Pre-Exam Study Packet (see below) as a HOME STUDY course. The Missouri Real Estate Commission requires that online and home study students pass an end of course test to receive a certificate of completion.
