Best Online Real Estate Schools in 2024

Online real estate education is a popular choice for those launching their career in real estate.

Course requirements vary by state and are usually required prior to taking the state exam. If you are already licensed in another state, your state might have reciprocity and you can save time and money on your education!

Real estate exams aren’t easy! I barely passed. I know many agents who took it multiple times before finally passing. Getting the right provider who meets your learning style is important!

Some of these companies provide in-class instruction as well. Others partner with networks of independent instructors, share course materials, and more.

Below are the contenders for your business if you are looking for online real estate classes for your pre-licensing or post-licensing continuing education.

How to Choose a School

The first limitation when choosing a school is ensuring they provide education for your state.

Next, select a program that has the features that best fit your education needs. Some possible features that are worth investigating and are not common to all programs include:

• “No Pass, No Pay”
• Practice Exams
• Flexible Schedules
• Instructor-led
• Includes SAE (TX) or continuing education

Conclusion

Hopefully, these online real estate courses will set you on the right path to becoming a successful real estate agent!

Separately, I wrote this oldie (but still relevant!) article for Inman on the 7 things I recommend doing after getting your license:

• Get your GRI
• Attend your state (or national!) convention
• Start listening to podcasts
• Start your own website
• Find a mentor
• Get an accountant (and good software like Realtyzam)
• Subscribe to Inman

You also probably want to join some of the best Facebook groups like Lab Coat Agents and more.

These are all things I wish I had done early in my real estate career and did far more for me than any real estate course I took. Don’t make my mistakes! Get (and stay) educated!
