How do you get a Real Estate License in Minnesota?
-
To become a licensed real estate professional in Minnesota, you need to successfully complete 90 hours of licensing education – three 30-hour courses. You will need to complete all course materials, meet the time requirement, and earn a passing score on the real estate license exam. A passing score is a minimum of 75% on each section.
Finally, you will need to choose and partner with an active Minnesota broker. Once sponsored by a brokerage, you will submit your license application to the Minnesota Department of Commerce. As a Fazendin Agent, our Office Manager or Broker will help you complete and submit your license.

I can’t recommend our agent, and Fazendin, highly enough!” – A Recent Home Selling Client
