How to obtain an Indiana Real Estate License
There are two basic real estate licenses in Indiana, a broker's license and a salesperson's license. Generally, a salesperson's license allows the holder to sell real estate only under the auspices of a licensed broker. (Salesperson's licenses are generally what people refer to when they say they have a real estate license.)
To obtain the salesperson's license, a person must:
- be at least 18 years of age and a resident of the United States
- has never, either directly or through a corporation or other entity, had a professional or business license suspended or revoked
- have not been convicted of a misdemeanor or felony
- have successfully completed courses in the principles, practices, and law of real estate, totaling eight (8) semester credit hours, or their equivalent, as a student at an accredited college or university or have successfully completed an approved salesperson course
- Apply for a license by submitting the application fee prescribed by the commission and an application
- Pass a written examination prepared and administered by the commission or its duly appointed agent
- Submit not more than one year after passing the written examination
To obtain the broker's license, a person must:
- be at least 18 years of age and a resident of the United States
- has never, either directly or through a corporation or other entity, had a professional or business license suspended or revoked
- have not been convicted of a misdemeanor or felony
- has had an active Indiana salesperson's license for one year (this may be waived by the commission upon a finding of equivalent experience)
- have successfully completed an approved broker course of study
- Apply for a license by submitting the application fee prescribed by the commission and an application
- Pass a written examination prepared and administered by the commission or its duly appointed agent
- Submit not more than one year after passing the written examination
