How To Earn An Arizona Real Estate License
Real Estate License And Exam Prep Courses In Arizona
When it is time to earn your real estate license, the first step is making sure you are prepared. Luckily, TrainingCenter has both the required Arizona pre-licensing courses and training programs for how to list, sell, handle real estate objections, and more.
Essentially, you'll start by taking your state-specific pre-licensing course, then passing your exam. Tips for both, as well as recommended courses, appear below.
What Does An Arizona Real Estate Agent Do?Real Estate Agents in Arizona help clients to purchase, rent, or sell property. This includes finding buyers and sellers, providing advice and helping to negotiate on price, and referring home inspectors or mortgage professionals - all within federal and state rules and regulations.
Further, they are required to represent the best interests of their clients, whether they be buyers or sellers in communities such as in Arizona in cities like Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, Mesa, Glendale, Chandler, Yuma, Flagstaff, and Tucson.
Generally speaking, Arizona real estate agents are responsible for:
- Communicating with buyers and sellers
- Abiding by state and federal laws re advertising and communications
- Staying involved to ensure any loan or financing requirements are met
- Communicating with the other agent and attorney's throughout the process
- Keeping an open line of communication with clients
- Help to close the transaction
Agents often decide to represent buyers only, sellers only, or both. Depending upon whether representing the buyer or the seller, agents can recommend an appropriate selling price, market the property, negotiate offers, attend and/or review the home inspection and appraisal, and provide feedback on comparable sales. Regardless, the job is not just showing houses; there is lots of paperwork, planning, and phoning, and not just in a 9-5 time frame.
The Benefits Of Having An Arizona Real Estate LicenseThere are many benefits to having a real estate license. While helping to serve your community find their "dream house", you also benefit from flexible hours and the opportunity to have high earnings via your commissions. For those who invest in real estate, having a license also gives you early access to properties as they become available.

Below are the recommended steps for passing your real estate agent exam and earning your Arizona real estate license.
- Step 1: Review Arizona's State Licensing Requirements
Since real estate licensing is state-specific, you want to make sure you qualify or meet the basic requirements for the state in which you want to be licensed. In most states, you have to be at least 18 years old, pass a background check, and pass your state's exam. Click your state from the table above to find your state's requirements - and suggested licensing courses. - Step 2: Register For The Arizona Real Estate Licensing Course
Our real estate training courses are designed to meet the state pre-licensing requirements, as well as prepare you for your state exam. Once you are done, you will be ready to take your state's real estate licensing exam. Click you state from the table above for information on where and how to register for your exam.
Note: Once you complete your course, be sure to obtain your official transcripts or certificate of completion from the school, which is required for your real estate license application. - Step 3: Study For Your Exam!
While exams often require you to know terms, definitions, and rules, real estatelicensing exams are often more than just memorization, so make sure you understand the concepts and take as many of the practice exams that come with your real estate pre-licensing course materials as possible. - Step 4: Pass Your Real Estate Licensing Exam
- Step 5: Submit An Application To Get Your Arizona Real Estate License
Once you pass your exam, the next step is to apply for your real estate license. This usually includes completing an application and paying a licensing fee. - Step 6: Determine Where You Want To Work
New agents can work either individually, with a broker, or with a team. Those who want to work individually should make sure they have a good business plan and ample funding to carry them until their sales start rolling in. Separately, working with a broker could reduce up front costs while also providing a mentor relationship. Whichever option you decide is best for you, be sure to get trained! - Step 7: Get Training For Doing Listing Presentations, Handling Objections, And More!
While your real estate exam typically includes terms, definitions, and laws, it does not teach you how to sell real estate. For that, you'll need training on how to handle listing, FSBO, and expireds presentations, overcome objections, and more. Luckily, Training Center has lots of real estate training courses to help you succeed. Simply click one of the recommended courses below or select a topic from the search box below.
