Ohio Real Estate License

[Alex Huang]

I'm looking to get my prerequisites up to the point that I can sit for the Ohio Real Estate exam.

There's a load of information out there and I'm still not entirely clear on a few things. I was hoping for some clarification:

My main goal in getting my license is to help make accessing properties easier. I'm not intending to use my license in the conventional sense (becoming a traditional 'realtor').

I am hoping to do the majority (if not all) of the coursework online. Is that possible? I see Hodros referred to often around here (https://www.hondros.com/programs/real-estate-sales.... The package is $1,600 - I assume it is your one-stop package for all requirements to be eligible to sit for the exam?

Has any one done their courses elsewhere?

Alex,
Yes I did everything online with Hondros.

I got my license for the same reason as you; for my own deals and access to MLS.

The key is to find a broker that is ok with you doing this so you are not paying a ton of office fees.

PM me if you have any more questions. Thanks
