Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our real estate courses
How do I get a Tennessee real estate license?
To become a Tennessee affiliate broker: complete the 60-hour TREC Basic Principles course, pass the PSI Tennessee salesperson exam, complete the 30-hour Course for New Affiliates, apply to TREC, affiliate with a principal broker, and submit the application with the \$91 fee.
Why is Tennessee 90 hours instead of 60?
Tennessee uses the term 'affiliate broker' (instead of salesperson). TREC requires 60 hours of Basic Principles before the exam, plus an additional 30-hour 'Course for New Affiliates' that must be completed after passing the exam but before license activation. Total: 90 hours.
How long does it take to get a Tennessee real estate license?
Most Tennesseans complete their affiliate broker license in 3 to 4 months. The 60-hour course can be finished in 3–4 weeks, followed by the PSI exam, the 30-hour New Affiliates course, and TREC application processing.
How much does it cost to get a Tennessee real estate license?
Expect total costs around $500–$750 in Tennessee. This includes Fortune Academy's 90-hour course, the $91 TREC application fee, the $39 PSI exam fee, and background check fees.
Is the Tennessee real estate course offered online?
Yes. Fortune Academy's 90-hour Tennessee course is 100% online, self-paced, and TREC-approved. Both the 60-hour Basic Principles and the 30-hour New Affiliates segments are included.
Who administers the Tennessee real estate exam?
PSI administers the Tennessee affiliate broker exam. 120 multiple-choice questions (80 national + 40 state), 4 hours, 70% passing score.
Do I need a sponsoring broker in Tennessee?
Yes. Tennessee affiliate brokers must be supervised by a principal broker. Your license cannot be activated until a TN principal broker submits the Affiliate Broker Affiliation form.
What is Tennessee post-licensing?
TN requires 120 hours of post-licensing education within your first 3 years: a 60-hour Affiliate Broker course (within first year), plus 60 elective hours. Fortune Academy offers the complete package.
