The California Real Estate Broker License is the senior real estate license in California. Unlike a salesperson - who must work under a broker - a licensed broker can operate independently, run a brokerage, hold client trust funds, and employ or sponsor salespersons. It is issued by the California Department of Real Estate (DRE) - it is a license, not a certification. To earn it, you complete eight statutorily required college-level courses (360 hours), meet the experience requirement (normally two years of full-time licensed salesperson experience within the last five years, or a qualifying equivalent, or a four-year degree with a real estate major/minor), then pass the DRE broker exam (200 multiple-choice questions, four hours, 75% to pass). You also pass a Live Scan background check.
A California real estate broker license is the step from working under someone else to running your own show. As a licensed broker you can operate independently, open and own a brokerage, hold client trust funds, and employ or sponsor salespersons - which typically means a larger share of each transaction and a path to building a business. It is the senior credential in California real estate, and the natural next step for an experienced, licensed salesperson.
