First Step Taken

The last few weeks have found me reading and studying the real estate principles course book in preparation for taking my online test. This is a mandatory first step toward applying for the California real estate salesperson's license.

After fixing the problem I had earlier in the day with my Linksys router successfully resetting itself to factory default settings, and killing my ability to connect to the Internet for 3 hours, I settled in to take the 100 question, open-book exam.

Two hours later, I submitted the test and was immediately advised I passed the exam, and printed out my course completion certificate.

Monday, I'll be sending off my $25 bucks and the application to the California Real Estate Exam Board to get on the calendar for my state licensing exam; which could be yet another 4 or 5 weeks out. In the meantime, I plan on spending 2 hours a night with the Virtual Tutor that came as part of the course materials in prepping for the test.

I also am reading the real estate practices textbook, since I will be taking the online test for that in mid-March.

When all is said and done, I should have a 4-year California real estate sales license; and then pursue taking the licensing exams for a few other western states.

In the meantime, anyone needing a refinance, I highly recommend checking out http://www.mortgageandlending.com. A great bunch of people, and the painless way to get a refinancing program that is customized to fit your particular needs.

Tell them Steve sent you!
