The Difference between a Real Estate Salesperson
and a Broker
2
Both brokers and salespeople are real estate
agents.

• A real estate agent is anyone who is licensed to
  advise the public on real estate issues.
•  Real Estate Brokers and real estate salespeople
  will have taken formal real estate courses and
  appropriate real estate exams or real estate
  brokers exams.

•  In California, real estate agents must be at
  least 18 years old and they must pass a minimum
  of three college level real estate courses.

• In Connecticut, in order to get a real estate
  license you must take 60 hours of real estate
  principles and practices courses at an approved
  school.

There are three main paths to becoming a real
estate broker

• A degree in real estate (four years) and passing
  a brokers exam.
• Two years experience as an agent, plus eight
  college-level courses at an approved real estate
  school, plus the brokers exam.
• Membership to the legal bar and passing the
  brokers exam. The brokers exam is usually longer
  and more difficult than the agents exam.
