How much does it cost to get an Ohio real estate license?

The total cost adds up across a few steps: your pre-licensing course, the exam registration fee (around $58 through PSI), a background check, and your license application fee through the Ohio Division of Real Estate & Professional Licensing. Altogether, most candidates spend between $200–$400 to get licensed.

Is there a background check required for an Ohio real estate license?

Yes. Ohio requires all license applicants to undergo a criminal background check. Having a criminal record doesn't automatically disqualify you, but certain convictions may affect your eligibility. If you have concerns, you can request a Eligibility Determination from the Ohio Division of Real Estate & Professional Licensing before you complete your coursework.
