What is this

Fastest way to become a licensed real estate agent in Australia, used by over 2,500 new agents

Real Estate Licence Handbook goes straight to the point and tells you the minimum you need to know to get your CPP41419 Certificate IV in Real Estate Practice and become a licensed agent.

Having personally gone through the licensing process, it was frustrating to find scattered resources and conflicting information about state requirements. This handbook contains the essence of what I gathered during my journey.

This handbook allowed me to pass all 18 units first attempt and secure a position at a top agency within 2 weeks of getting licensed — at Ray White, McGrath, Belle Property, LJ Hooker, and other leading agencies.

A career changer used Real Estate Licence Handbook and went from retail to real estate in just 4 months, landing a role at a boutique agency with an OTE of $150k+ in their first year!
