Free Missouri Real Estate Practice Exam Online

Correct answer: B. The 48-hour Salesperson Pre-Examination Course

The 48-hour Salesperson Pre-Examination Course must be completed first, since it covers the exam content and satisfies the exam eligibility requirement.

• A: The 24-hour MREP course may be taken before or after the exam, but must be completed before the license application is submitted, not before scheduling the exam.
• C: Broker post-licensing coursework applies to broker license upgrades, not to a salesperson exam-eligibility requirement.
• D: The 12-hour continuing education core course is a renewal-cycle requirement for already-licensed salespersons, not a pre-exam requirement.

Correct answer: C. 72 hours

Missouri requires 72 total hours, split between a 48-hour Salesperson Pre-Examination Course and a 24-hour Missouri Real Estate Practice (MREP) course.

• A: 30 hours is not the Missouri requirement; it understates the combined coursework mandated by MREC.
• B: 45 hours is close to but not the actual figure; it appears to blend the two required courses incorrectly.
• D: 90 hours overstates the requirement and is not used by MREC for salesperson pre-licensing.

Correct answer: B. No, the MREP course must be completed before the license application is submitted

The MREP course may be taken before or after the exam, but it must be completed prior to submitting the license application to MREC.

• A: MREC requires the 24-hour MREP course to be finished before the application goes in; it is not deferrable to after licensure.
• C: The MREP course is sequenced after the 48-hour Salesperson Pre-Examination Course, not before it.
• D: Broker sponsorship affects supervision of an active license, not the sequencing of the required pre-licensing coursework.

Correct answer: B. Chapter 339 RSMo

Chapter 339 RSMo, titled 'Real Estate Agents, Brokers, Appraisers and Escrow Agents,' is the correct citation for MREC's licensing authority.

• A: Chapter 213 RSMo is the Missouri Human Rights Act, covering discrimination, not real estate licensing.
• C: Chapter 407 RSMo covers the Missouri Merchandising Practices Act (consumer protection generally), not real estate licensing.
• D: Chapter 443 RSMo governs mortgages and deeds of trust, not agent/broker licensing.

Correct answer: B. Real estate salesperson

Section 339.010 RSMo defines a 'real estate salesperson' as a person who, for compensation, becomes associated as an independent contractor or employee with a broker to perform licensed acts.

• A: A broker-associate is a licensed broker who chooses to work under another broker; the statutory definition described is the salesperson definition.
• C: Property manager is not a distinct license category under Chapter 339; property management activities fall under the broker/salesperson license.
• D: Escrow agent is a separately defined and regulated category under Chapter 339, distinct from the salesperson definition.
