Question & Answer
Review the question and all answer choices
25 hours
Answer A (25 hours) is incorrect and far below Georgia's requirement; a 25-hour course would provide insufficient preparation for the breadth of material covered on the Georgia salesperson examination and would not meet the statutory minimum established by the GREC.
40 hours
Answer B (40 hours) is incorrect; while some states use a 40-hour pre-license requirement, Georgia has set a higher standard of 75 hours, reflecting the state's commitment to more thorough preparation for salesperson candidates.
75 hours
90 hours
Answer D (90 hours) is incorrect; while 90 hours is the pre-license requirement for Georgia broker candidates, it exceeds the 75-hour requirement for salesperson candidates, and confusing salesperson and broker requirements is a common but costly error.
Why is this correct?
Answer C is correct because the Georgia Real Estate Commission mandates exactly 75 hours of approved pre-license education for salesperson candidates, as specified under Georgia law O.C.G.A. § 43-40-8 and GREC regulations. This 75-hour course must be completed through a GREC-approved school before the applicant is eligible to sit for the Georgia salesperson licensing examination.
