Arkansas Real Estate License Education

To be eligible to become a salesperson in the state of Arkansas, you must have reached the age of majority, eighteen (18).

The Arkansas Real Estate Commission requires 60 Hours to become a licensed salesperson.

30 of those hours must be in basic principles of real estate.

Once the required education has been completed, your next step is to register for the state exam. The Arkansas Real Estate Commission uses Pearson Vue to administer the state exam. Make a reservation online here or by calling (800) 274-2606. The exam is $75 and can be paid by credit card, debit card, voucher, or electronic check.

Before calling, candidates should have the following:

• Legal name, address, Social Security number, daytime telephone number, and date of birth
• The name of the examination(s)
• The preferred examination date and test center location (a list here)
• The information noted on the Certificate of Examination of Eligibility from AREC

Once you pass the examination, you will receive a passing score report and instructions for applying for a license. The application for the license must be submitted to the Arkansas Real Estate Commission within 90 days of passing the exam. Along with the application, a candidate must submit payment of $88.50, a completed fingerprint card, proof of attainment of age of majority, and Official transcript or original certificate.
