If it is seller financed, and you are the seller then no you don't need to be licensed. If you are a third party broker, then yes you need to be licensed to discuss rates with a client.

This is tricky and I would recommend co-brokering with a licensed real estate firm. You can get a referral fee.......\n\nThere is a reason why certain professions have licensing requirements and that is to protect both the consumer and the professional. If the deal goes sour, you will have no protection and the customer could refuse to pay your fee at close since ur are not licensed and he may threaten to expose the fact...people will say/do anything to get out of their obligations.\n\nCo-broker the deal with a licensed agent/firm.....just find a teeny-tiny one that will not make a fuss about paying out ur referral fee.

You need to sign it and you should use the standard contract. Since you are probably not going to save money for not using an agent (since the listing agent in this case, get the full commission), why don't you find an agent who would do everything for you?

Just register your business with the secretary of states office. \n\nHere is the link on the steps you need to take. The last step includes finding out if you need other licenses.\n\nhttp://www.ss.ca.gov/business/resources.htm

Yes, as long as the Notary is commissioned in the state where you actually sign the document.\n\nI just closed on a property sale in Texas and had the documents notarized in MO where I currently live.  No problem at all.

In PA you must take two classes.  There are lots of places that offer them.  I took mine through Polley Associates and I know they offer them across the state.\n\nAfter you pass those two classes you must sit for a state exam.  Once you pass the exam you are elegible for your license.  You MUST find a Broker who is willing to let you hang your license with their company however, you can NOT practice on your own as stated by the person above.

Check with your state division of real estate. Most states require one if you buy and sell over a certain number of homes per year. Also in most states "flipping" of properties is illegal.

Legally, you are required to obtain a merchant's license or certificate of resell in the state and possibly the county you are going to do business in. Most internet sellers do not follow through with this as sometimes it can be costly and very hard to maintain. Especially if you are starting a small business. Most times though, if you carry a merchant's license in the state you reside in and offer your goods with sales tax for your state, most times that is acceptable. It's wise to consult with a business attorney and accountant for issues such as these for your state to find out what is acceptable.

In California, you can have an off-site manager for an apartment complex of any size.  But if the complex is 16 or more units, that person needs to have a Ca. Real Estate salesperson license.  If you feel that the 'neglect' of the complex is an issue, report it to the California Department of Real Estate (DRE)- go to www.dre.ca.gov\nYou can get the phone numbers to the area office for your county, and a bunch of other helpful stuff. \n(I have a degree in real estate and escrow- i should know!)\n\nYour landlord has a responsibility to you and all other tennants of the building to guarantee 'quiet enjoyment of dwelling spaces in possession of the tennant'... That's the law.

It depends on the state in which you want to originate loans.  Here in Minnesota you are not required to have any formal training or licensing to work for a mortgage broker and originate loans.  If you want to own a mortgage company or you want to get paid as an independent contractor (if your broker allows it, mine does) you must apply and pay for a MN State Origination License.  Pay the fee and you are good to go

Yes, but most of them are people trying to sell you an exam preparation package, and you have to register with the site.  When you register, you will get tons of spam.\n\nYour best bet would be to go to any real estate office and ask the broker for tips.

The industry is full of study guides.  Hit Yahoo and search for a real estate/mortgage study guide.  In CA the license is the same (one license used for both real estate and mortgage), check your state's DRE's website and figure out if you need a special license for mortgage.\n\nAnd the person who posted above is right, this is a professional's market these days and without a strong referral network it's hard to break into the market today.

When I was working in a real estate agency we had access to one which we used for targeted marketing campaigns. I think you had to purchase a licence for it's use from the REIQ.

Go to the state website for Colorado, do a search for real estate division in Colorado.  The requirements will be there.    Some states don't require any license, some do.  Not sure about Colorado.  Good luck!

You will either need to get your broker's license (more classes & more tests) or you will need to operate under an already licensed real estate broker.  I believe it is unlawful in any state for a real estate agent to operate without a broker but, I may be wrong.  I am only well versed in Arizona real estate laws.\n\nBy the way, if you have taken the classes and passed the test to get your real estate license then you are a real estate agent.  You are not a "Realtor" unless you join and pay the association fees for the National Aossciation of Realtors, which also requires you to follow their code of ethics.  You can not simply get your license and call yourself a Realtor.\n\nAs for finding property to sell, first you will need to find clients who have property they want to sell.  Advertise, advertise, advertise!  All of this should be covered in your classes prior to licensing.

You'll probably need the business license, too, depending on what you need to show proof of ownship for.

No but you have to learn the way to fill out those thousands of forms.  A broker will have people help you.  Plus who wants to deal with a person who acts solo.  I'd be scared.
