1. The Basics
The Real Estate Commission requires the following to receive an associate broker's real estate license in the state of Colorado.
- Receive a Certificate of Completion of Educational Requirements (REC-33) from a state-certified school, which states you have successfully completed the course established by the Colorado Real Estate Commission;
- Pass the Commission's associate broker's exam;
- Have a completed Fingerprint Card, No. FD-258 (from your local police station); and
- Provide a written statement covering any convictions (or nolo contendere) for misdemeanors or felonies (or pending charges) or for a deferred judgment or sentence within the past ten years. (Note: Traffic violations are not taken into consideration.)
Please Note:
Completing the VanEd pre- licensing course is a necessary step toward obtaining your Colorado real estate license.
However, the course only satisfies the first of the four requirements above. You will still need to pass the state exam and fulfill the other requirements to obtain your license.
