If you can find practice tests, that is my recommendation - that is what I did after taking the required time component and did not have any issues passing the test. 

If you want to go further, you can use a service like Safely or AutoHost to run background checks.For payments, I’d recommend using a platform like Stripe or Square—they’re secure and easy to set up.

Also, any recommended PM's in Calgary? 

Which would you recommend?

Would you recommend a virtual agency?

Would appreciate your input, contacts or recommended podcasts to follow.1.  

Any recommendations on reliable and top notch cleaners in Raleigh?

Sellers do not recommend appraisers.

But still, I think it's a bit too high.Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

Those agents are recommended because they paid to be first on the list.
