Real Estate Brokers License
With competition increasing among real estate agencies, a growing number of agents are taking more control of their careers by earning a real estate broker's license. Holding a broker's license allows you to manage all the legal details of buying or selling a property. Brokers can set their own rates, based on market demand or personal preference. In addition, licensed real estate brokers can hire real estate agents to handle the sales process in exchange for a split of any commission.Broker's License Exam Requirements
All 50 states and the District of Columbia require real estate brokers to pass an exam and to complete one to three years of professional real estate sales before earning their licenses. Brokers' training courses cover all aspects of state-specific and federal real estate laws, as well as industry guidelines for ethics and professional conduct.California Real Estate Brokers License

About the Broker License Exam Preparation
The Virtual Tutor System is designed to help you pass the Real Estate Brokers' License exam on the first attempt! It has three interactive study methods that are a big help in getting you up to speed and fully prepared to tackle the state exam.
- The first study method (Review Mode) allows you to go through each question and choose which answer you believe is correct. The tutor then informs you if you are correct or incorrect and then explains the reasoning behind the correct answer.
- The second study method (Exam Mode) allows you to take a simulated, timed exam. This option allows you to get an idea how it will feel to take the exam.
- The third method (Intensive Mode), simply shows you the question and the correct answer. We recommend you start this method 10 days before you take the exam.
Upon completing all three modes (Almost 2000 Real Estate Exam Style Questions!) you will be well on your way to passing the Real Estate Brokers' License exam.
