Fastest way to get my RE License

Posted

Hey all! 
I’m currently getting ready to transition out of the military and into the civilian world. I am located in SD California, and I need to get my real estate license ASAP for a job I am interning at. From what I’ve been told it will take me up to 3 months to get this done, just based on the time it takes to complete mandatory courses. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with this and if there is any expedited process that would allow me to get it within the month or as fast as possible? I have seen a few courses but they are usually within that time frame and cost quite a bit of money. Any info or past experience would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I'm active duty Air Force and it took me six weeks to get my real estate license in Texas. I had to complete 180 hours. I took leave every Thursday and Friday and could listen to the course material in my car. That made the difference for me. 

You'll need to find a self-paced course program that provides great flexibility and you'll need to commit to the process. I didn't have to spend much money outside of the course itself. I found a coupon for the course on Groupon and received an even greater discount.

I wish you all the best.
