Patricia is a licensed real estate sales associate in Tennessee who has recently moved to Kentucky and wants to obtain a Kentucky real estate license without completing the full 96-hour pre-license education. Which mechanism, if available under Kentucky law, would allow Patricia to obtain a Kentucky license based on her existing Tennessee license?

Correct Answer

B) Reciprocity or license recognition, which may allow Patricia to obtain a Kentucky license with reduced or waived pre-license education requirements, subject to KREC approval and applicable agreements.

Kentucky has reciprocity or license recognition agreements with certain states, administered through KREC. Under these agreements, a licensee from a qualifying state may be able to obtain a Kentucky license with reduced pre-license education requirements or by taking only the Kentucky state portion of the examination. The specific requirements depend on the agreement in place between Kentucky and the applicant's home state, and KREC must approve the application. This is not automatic and does not waive all requirements.

Answer Options
A
Reciprocity, which automatically grants Patricia a Kentucky license equivalent to her Tennessee license without any additional requirements.
B
Reciprocity or license recognition, which may allow Patricia to obtain a Kentucky license with reduced or waived pre-license education requirements, subject to KREC approval and applicable agreements.
C
Mutual recognition, which requires Patricia to retake only the Kentucky state portion of the exam but waives all education requirements permanently.
D
Endorsement, which transfers Patricia's Tennessee license directly to Kentucky and requires no examination or education of any kind.
