Question #: 2
Topic #: 8
[All Virginia Real Estate Salesperson Questions]

Janay lives in and is licensed as a salesperson in North Carolina but wants to practice real estate in Virginia. Which of the following is true?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Virginia has reciprocity agreements with several states, including North Carolina.

If Janay is already licensed in NC, she only needs to:

Apply to the Virginia Real Estate Board.

Provide certification of her NC license in good standing.

Pass the Virginia state portion of the licensing exam.

She does not need to retake pre-licensure education, and residency in Virginia is not required.

Reference (Virginia Real Estate):

Virginia Code 54.1-2105.2 (Reciprocity for out-of-state licensees)

Real Estate Board Reciprocity Rules (DPOR guidance)

Wait, so she can't even practice in Virginia at all? That's surprising!

I thought you could just transfer licenses between states?

Definitely B, they have specific courses for out-of-state folks.

D seems a bit harsh, but I guess they want local knowledge.

I thought I read that residency was important for Virginia real estate licenses, which makes me think option D could be correct.

I vaguely recall something about needing to take a special course if you’re coming from another state. Could that be option B?

I’m not sure, but I feel like I’ve seen questions about out-of-state licenses before. Maybe Janay just needs to pass the state portion?

I think I remember that Virginia has strict licensing requirements, so I’m leaning towards option C.

I'm feeling pretty confident about this one. Based on my understanding, real estate licenses are generally not automatically transferable between states. So I think option C, where Janay would need to complete all the pre-licensure requirements in Virginia, is likely the correct answer here.

Okay, my strategy here would be to carefully read through each of the answer choices and try to eliminate the ones that don't seem right. The residency requirement in option D seems pretty clear, so that's probably not the answer. I'll focus on trying to determine which of the other options best describes the process for Janay.

Hmm, I think the key here is figuring out how the Virginia Real Estate Board (REB) handles licenses from other states. The options mention things like taking the state portion of the exam, a special licensing course, and whether the REB recognizes out-of-state licenses.

I'm not sure about this one. The question seems to be asking about the requirements for a real estate salesperson to practice in a different state, but I'm not familiar with the specific rules for that.
