I was scheduled to take the CA real estate exam a month and a half ago but I saw your video and got cold feet! I had to rethink about being reasonably prepared and concluded that I wasn't lol. So I rescheduled. Following some of your advice, I signed up for Prep Agent and spent hours on 300+ question practice tests daily for 3 weeks. I finally took the test for the first time a few days ago and PASSED! Super excited! Thanks for the great advice and encouragement - IT WORKED! God bless you! 😇
Honestly, I watched this video and felt so prepared. Passed on the first try, as well, and interviewing brokerages. :) The preparation for what to print and bring with you was so helpful. A lot of people that were coming to test were not prepared, and it could only just add to the testing anxiety. I recommend this video to anyone who would be embarking on a California Real Estate career. I have been traveling and living in Nashville, TN and I flew back just to take my exam, and stayed at the La Quinta in the same parking lot, and just walked over. If you have a long drive, I would recommend doing the same thing, and just stay early so that you don't have to worry about being late or parking troubles. They will make you move your car, if you are not parked in the right place, and I just walked, so it's so much less stressful! Thanks again for the video, Sasha!
Thank you so much for sharing your tips! I failed the California State exam 4 steps, but am going to be utilizing your tips to help me study to re-take the exam next month.
Thank you for the video. I JUST started studying for the exam and your video was perfect. Thank you! BTW, I am located in Lodi, CA 45 minutes south of Sacramento. Hope I can pass the 1st time too!
Thank you so much for posting this video! I just passed my exam yesterday on the first try! Your post was so helpful and made me feel relaxed,prepared, and confident on exam day.
@@Scrollbandit_404 don’t be nervous just cram the night before and go over all the exam prep questions. It’s multiple choice so as long as you study you’ll be fine. Good luck! 🍀
Thanks very much, watched your video last night and Alissa's acronyms/tips and I passed Thanks very much, hope your career is going well. Cheers, Patrick
I took my test and failed back in 2011. I went in fully prepared and just froze and failed. Most of the questions I didn't know, I winged it and got wrong and on my way home I was like "Man, I knew the correct answer." I've signed up in April for new courses and 100% procrastinating. I'm not studying as much and just going along. I'm looking for Amy suggestions and support. Thank you for the great content and congratulations for pursuing your goals.
I would definitely suggest following the prep agent course and quizzes for California and not winging it. Also go with the mindset of if you pass it takes so much money to get started and they don’t tell you that. I don’t even practice real estate cause it’s just too expensive.
@MomDateWithSashaJay Ahh, that's too bad. I'm trying to get into Commercial Real Estste once I pass and already reached out to a few companies. You seemed so driven diving into this field.
Hey Sasha , thank you for sharing your experience. I’m located in SoCal and working to get my real estate license. My question is, how can one become a real estate developer and get started with it. Do I need a real estate license, or some kind of education, are there any requirements to be one, where can I learn about real estate development, and are the rules similar in other states? It would be great if you make a video on this subject. Thank you so much, and keep up the great work.
Great video! Appreciate the helpful info! One question: does CA have any math questions. Prep agent says no but I haven’t found anything else online to confirm that from other sources.
Of course! Glad I could help. Just don’t stress too much about, definitely go over everything the night before, listen to the TH-cam videos on the way to the test site, make sure you get the 100%s on the practice exams, and breath 😊
@@MomDateWithSashaJay I passed yesterday. I won’t lie, I only listened to all the prep agent videos and did like 3 practice tests I already passed the NMLS and been a loan officer for the last three years so it helped lol
Hi, great question! I started studying 4 months before my test date, passed the first time, got my license, worked with an agency for a month and that was it. It was too expensive for me to even continue. Where I live in California that is something GAVAR where you have to pay quarterly fees that is expensive then you have to pay a brokers fee depending on where you work, then you pay for your own signs and marketing again depending on where you go. Also there are fees for the MLS just to access the homes. Lots of fees that I just couldn’t afford so that’s why I don’t do real estate anymore.
@@MomDateWithSashaJay thank you! Sorry to ask again but, I noticed that he has flash card definitions on the app and a vocabulary list on the app as well. But some words have two different descriptions of the definition. One more in depth (flash card) and one more simple (vocab list). Which one did you study from ?
Don’t be sorry about asking it’s ok ☺️ I did the basic version. The vocab wasn’t really in depth they just went over the basic meaning of it. The only ones I went in depth about was the legal terms like trust, deed, and know the difference between the tenancy in common and joint and know what each one means. 😊
I’m not too sure I believe you’d have to specify getting a certificate for real estate from your college. But I would call the real estate board and ask them to be sure. Glad you liked the video!
I’m currently studying for my final as well, is the final exam customized to the third elective I’m taking along with the principals and practices course material? Or did it just over principals and practices only?
The test covered everything except math. There is questions from principles questions from policies and practice. It’s a mix of everything and there are three different versions of the test. And like I said, in the video honestly, I didn’t even read the books. I skimmed them. It was PrepAgent that got me through it and the girl that I mentioned.
@@MomDateWithSashaJay Hearing no math is a blessing, from what I’m gathering the elective course is more of a wild card for the final. I’m studying via real estate trainers, that material is more “here’s all the terminology, now study” which is more my speed. Thanks for the feedback.
Hi Sasha, what paper information do they need, is there any way you could show an example? ( you mention this at the very beginning of video) . Please let me know TY:)
Hi! When you apply to take the exam it will take you to a print out that you will need for parking that you leave on your dash and the second paper is to take inside with you. I don’t remember the form exactly but it’ll take it to you when you apply to take your exam there.
I have my state exam here in California next month November 17 I’m really nervous I feel things aren’t getting stuck in my head not sure if I’m nervous or what 🥹🙃😉 any more tips ??
If you have been studying for awhile beforehand, don’t stress too much about it. A lot of it is common sense. If you at least did the prep agent practice questions the best advice I can say for an exam in like two weeks is to go over all of the practice questions again and make sure you get 100% and if you feel like things aren’t sticking, watch a lot of acronym videos. Or make your own acronyms up. I did that for a few of mine. I also listened to the TH-cam videos on the way to the test site. Good luck. I’m sure you got it!
Hello! I don't see the link to the girls video that you mention regarding acronyms! Please link or direct me to her video please & thank you for your help!
Hi thank you for watching this is the acronym video and I would suggest watching all her other ones too! th-cam.com/video/LlYn2VhGNBA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=xHhbggG06rQ5pROj
Does the CA Exam have a lot of math? I have been studying the English aspect of it religiously, but I have not looked into the math! P.S Thankyou so much for the video and the details very informative!
Hello! Thank you for watching. The exam has no math in it at all so you’ll be good! Good luck on your exam! If you have any other questions feel free to ask ☺️
Haha yes I’m aware there is more than one city in California. The city I took my test is LA. The test can be many places. It depends on where you are located.
Think it depends on which broker you end up with. But you’re not wrong. I have my license but I’m not practicing due to personal reasons and no one telling you all the fees associated with the business.

how long did it take to become a realtor from start to finish? how much did it cost?

Of course no problem ☺️
Hey what school/online course did you study for the exam? I’m looking where. Thanks
Hi! When you used prep agent did you study the vocabulary from his vocabulary list or the flashcards on the app? The definitions seem to be different

I’m not too sure I believe you’d have to specify getting a certificate for real estate from your college. But I would call the real estate board and ask them to be sure. Glad you liked the video!

Take it from someone in the business. 2024 is the WORST year to get into this business. DO NOT BECOME A REALTOR.
