Are you ready to launch an exciting new career in Pennsylvania real estate? Whether you are making a complete career change, re-entering the workforce, or adding a second income stream, getting your Pennsylvania real estate license is one of the smartest investments you can make in your future. The process is more straightforward than most people think — and right now, thanks to a historic sale at Garden State Real Estate Academy, it has never been more affordable.
In this complete guide, we will walk you through every step required to earn your Pennsylvania real estate license, explain exactly what to expect along the way, and show you how the best real estate school in the region can get you licensed quickly and at the lowest cost in our history.
Step 1: Meet the Basic Eligibility Requirements
Before enrolling in a PA real estate school, confirm you meet Pennsylvania's baseline requirements. You must be at least 18 years old, hold a high school diploma or GED, and have a valid Social Security number. You do not need a college degree, and there is no Pennsylvania residency requirement — meaning you can live in New Jersey or another neighboring state and still earn a Pennsylvania real estate license.
Step 2: Complete Your 75-Hour Pre-Licensing Education
Pennsylvania requires all real estate salesperson applicants to complete 75 hours of approved pre-licensing coursework. This is where choosing the right PA real estate school makes all the difference. Garden State Real Estate Academy — the top-rated real estate school trusted by thousands of students — now offers a fully licensed Pennsylvania pre-licensing course entirely online, at the lowest price in our school’s history.
Our 75-hour PA online real estate classes are 100% self-paced. That means you set your own schedule. Study after the kids go to bed. Log in during a quiet hour at work. Power through the material in an intense week-long marathon if that suits you. There are no live Zoom sessions you have to attend, no rigid class schedules, and no deadlines breathing down your neck. Your timeline. Your pace. Your license.
GSREA’s 75-Hour PA Pre-Licensing Course is now on sale for the lowest price in our school’s history. Visit www.GSREA.com or call 609.923.0590 to enroll today.
Step 3: Pass the Pennsylvania Real Estate Salesperson Exam
Once you complete your 75 hours of coursework, you will be eligible to sit for the Pennsylvania Real Estate Salesperson Exam, administered by Pearson VUE. The exam consists of two portions: a national section covering general real estate principles and a Pennsylvania-specific state section. Most students who complete a quality pre-licensing program pass on their first attempt. GSREA’s curriculum is carefully designed to prepare you for every topic on the exam.
Step 4: Complete a Background Check and Apply for Your
License
Pennsylvania requires a criminal background check through the Pennsylvania State Police. This is a standard part of the licensing process for all applicants. Once your background check is complete, you will submit your salesperson license application to the Pennsylvania Real Estate Commission (PREC), along with proof of your completed education and your exam passing score.
Step 5: Affiliate with a Pennsylvania Broker
In Pennsylvania, newly licensed salespersons must work under the supervision of a licensed Pennsylvania broker. Before your license can be activated, you need to affiliate with a broker who will sponsor you. We can point you in the right direction to brokerages actively recruiting new licensees and will help guide you through the affiliation process. This is the exciting part — you are now officially in business.
