GEORGIA REAL ESTATE RECIPROCITY EXAM 2026–
COMPREHENSIVE PRACTICE QUESTIONS
Question 1: Georgia offers full real estate license reciprocity with which states?
A) Florida only
B) All states except Florida
C) All 50 states
D) Only bordering states
Correct Answer: C) All 50 states
Rationale: Georgia offers full reciprocity with all 50 states. However, Florida is treated
differently—Florida residents must take and pass the Georgia Law & Practice supplement
exam through PSI before applying for a Georgia license. For all other states, reciprocity
applicants can waive the 75-hour pre-license education requirement.
Question 2: A licensee holding a reciprocal license from Florida moves their primary
residence to Georgia. Within how many days must they notify the Georgia Real Estate
Commission?
A) 10 days
B) 30 days
C) 60 days
D) 90 days
Correct Answer: B) 30 days
Rationale: Licensees who move their primary residence to Georgia must notify GREC
within 30 days of the change. This ensures that the licensee's records are updated and that
they are in compliance with Georgia residency requirements for license maintenance.

license in Georgia?
A) Verification of license in the home state
B) Passing the Georgia state law exam

D) All of the above
Correct Answer: D) All of the above
Rationale: Reciprocity applicants must verify their license status in their home state, pass
the Georgia state exam portion (or the full exam depending on the agreement), and
complete a background check. Full reciprocity waives the 75-hour pre-license education
requirement for applicants licensed in other states.

C) The individual must complete the 75-hour pre-license education course
D) The individual cannot be licensed in Georgia
Correct Answer: B) The individual must take the Georgia Law & Practice
supplement exam

and pass the Georgia Law & Practice supplement exam through PSI before applying for a
Georgia license. This exam covers Georgia-specific real estate law and practices.

D) The individual cannot be licensed in Georgia

still pass the Georgia state exam portion.

another state

license elsewhere, the applicant would be treated as a new applicant and must pass the
Georgia exam. An active license in good standing is required for reciprocity eligibility.

, Correct Answer: B) The 75-hour pre-license education

required, as is the background check and application fee.

what level?

apply for a broker license in Georgia through reciprocity without meeting Georgia's broker
requirements.

Georgia real estate broker to activate their license. Without sponsorship, the license
remains inactive.
