Review the question and all answer choices

A

Florida Only

Stating that Georgia has reciprocity only with Florida is incorrect and would represent an extremely restrictive policy that Georgia has not adopted. While Florida and Georgia share a border and significant real estate market overlap, Georgia's reciprocity extends far beyond just Florida to all states.

B

All States

Correct Answer
C

No States

Stating that Georgia has reciprocity with no states would mean Georgia operates a completely closed licensing system, requiring all applicants β€” regardless of prior experience β€” to complete full pre-licensing education. This is factually incorrect; Georgia has one of the most open reciprocity policies in the nation.

D

Some States

While 'Some States' might seem like a safe, moderate answer, it is factually wrong for Georgia. Georgia's reciprocity policy applies to all states, not a select few, making this answer an understatement of Georgia's actual policy.

Why is this correct?

Georgia grants real estate license reciprocity with all U.S. states, meaning that a licensee holding an active license in any other state may apply for a Georgia license without completing Georgia's full pre-licensing course, provided they meet Georgia's other requirements, including passing the Georgia-specific portion of the state licensing exam. This policy is administered by the Georgia Real Estate Commission (GREC) and reflects Georgia's recognition that all state licensing programs meet a baseline of professional competency. The key nuance is that reciprocity does not mean automatic licensure β€” applicants must still apply, pay fees, and pass the state law exam portion.
