CONGRATULATIONS! You’ve passed your real estate exam, NOW WHAT?

Here’s a quick guide to next steps:

•  Interview brokerages to determine which is the best fit for you. Every brokerage has a different structure and culture.
• Once your license is hung at a brokerage, it’s time to choose a local REALTOR® association.  You may belong to any Association your managing broker belongs to. Research the benefits and resources that make the most sense to you. 
• Did you choose SMDRA?  Simply apply online (above) and submit your application.
• Contact your Multiple Listing Service, REcolorado, to get your MLS subscription started. REALTORS® pay a lower monthly fee and the initiation fee is waived.
• Take New Member Ethics & Orientation within 90 days of joining.
• As easy as that you are a part of SMDRA, the Colorado Association of REALTORS® and the National Association of REALTORS®.
