Question & Answer

Review the question and all answer choices

A

No

Correct Answer
B

No, except brokers

This is incorrect because Rhode Island does not impose special residency requirements for brokers. Both salespersons and brokers are subject to the same residency requirements, which is none.

C

Yes

This is incorrect because Rhode Island, like most states, does not require applicants to be residents to obtain a real estate license. This would unnecessarily restrict the talent pool and limit professional mobility.

D

Yes, for 3+ years

This is incorrect because there is no residency requirement of any duration in Rhode Island. Licensing focuses on education, examination, and background checks rather than length of residency.

Why is this correct?

Residency is NOT required.
