Real Estate License for Agents & Brokers in California

[Sven Simon]

Hi all,

I started completing course requirements for the CA RE broker's license a few years ago. Now, I'm in the process of picking it up again and actually completing it. However, I was just told that the requirements got changed as of 12/31/12.

Meaning, you're not able to go straight for broker's license anymore. Instead, you need to obtain the sales agent license first. Then, work two full years under a broker. And then obtain the broker's license yourself!

Is that correct? Am I missing something here?

California Real Estate agents and brokers, help me out here :)

Thank you, all!
