Great Online Courses!
I have gone through different platforms while getting my real estate license. Kaplan has by far been the best online program that I have used. All the extra modules and practice tests were amazing. Make sure you add the Exam Prep course to your classes. It will definitely improve your odds at passing. Also make sure to utilize the study groups they offer for National material and State materials. Cindy Lott is one of the best instructors I've ever had!

Currently, Texas does not have reciprocity with any state. Reciprocity between states means you may not be required to get a new real estate license to perform transactions in another state.
The cost to obtain your license in Texas includes your education, which can be anywhere from $400–$700; a $43 exam fee; a $150 application fee; and a background check/fingerprinting fee that ranges from $39.75.
Agents may renew their license up to six months after their expiration date. After six months and up to two years past expiration, agents must apply for reinstatement.
*The continued enrollment without additional charge is the Kaplan Commitment to help you pass the exam. It cannot be transferred to others. The refund policy for the original enrollment does not apply to the continuation.
