The Ohio Real Estate Salesperson License is the entry-level license to work as a real estate agent in Ohio. A salesperson lists and sells real estate under the supervision of a licensed broker. It is issued by the Ohio Division of Real Estate & Professional Licensing (part of the Department of Commerce); the courses are approved by the Ohio Real Estate Commission - it is a license, not a certification. To earn it, you complete 120 hours of approved pre-license education - more than most states, typically four courses including Real Estate Principles & Practices, a 40-hour Ohio Real Estate Law course (covering civil rights and housing discrimination), Real Estate Finance and Real Estate Appraisal. You secure a sponsoring Ohio broker before applying (the broker signs your examination application), pass the state exam through PSI (national and Ohio portions, 70% to pass), and complete a fingerprint-based background check within 10 days of applying.
An Ohio real estate salesperson license is your entry into a large and affordable property market, from Columbus, Cleveland and Cincinnati to Ohio's smaller cities and towns. As a licensed salesperson (working under a broker) you can represent buyers and sellers, list and show property, and earn commission. It is the standard first step into an Ohio real estate career and the foundation for becoming a broker later.
