Getting your
real estate license

In Alberta, getting your real estate license is a pretty simple process, but there are still a few steps to keep straight. Licenses are administered by RECA, the provincial real estate council – and like most good councils, they have some important rules. You’ll need to meet basic eligibility requirements, like being allowed to work in Canada. Then, you’ll need to take some great pre-licensing education courses (like ours). Below, we’ve made you a cheat sheet of the steps to get your shiny, new license. You’ll be there before you know it!
