Massachusetts has reciprocity with which states?
Question & Answer
Review the question and all answer choices
Connecticut Only
While Connecticut is indeed one of the states with which Massachusetts has a reciprocity agreement, stating 'Connecticut Only' is factually incorrect because Massachusetts also has agreements with several other states, including Colorado and Georgia.
All States
Massachusetts does not have reciprocity with all states; each reciprocity agreement must be individually negotiated and approved, and many states have licensing standards or exam requirements that differ enough from Massachusetts that no agreement has been reached.
No States
Massachusetts does maintain active reciprocity agreements with multiple states, so 'No States' is factually incorrect and would severely disadvantage out-of-state licensees who qualify under existing agreements.
Some States
Why is this correct?
Massachusetts has reciprocity agreements with a defined subset of states β including Connecticut, Colorado, Georgia, Rhode Island, and others β rather than with all states or no states at all, making 'Some States' the accurate answer. Under 254 CMR 3.00 and the policies of the Board of Registration of Real Estate Brokers and Salespersons, applicants from reciprocal states must still pass the Massachusetts state portion of the licensing exam and meet other administrative requirements. The list of reciprocal states is maintained and updated by the Board, so candidates should verify the current roster with the Massachusetts Division of Professional Licensure.
