Before you register for the Real Estate Trading Services Licensing Course, you should take the time to do some research on the "BC Financial Services Authority" website. You should also become familiar with the BC Financial Services Authority's Good Reputation Guidelines to make sure you qualify for a real estate license in BC.

The BC government has several requirements to obtain your individual real estate license.

1. You must be nineteen years of age or older and be able to show proof of Canadian citizenship, landed immigrant status, or a work permit.
2. You must have a good reputation. This includes your general business reputation as well as your personal reputation. In addition, you must not have any criminal convictions or charges — no criminal record.
3. You must satisfy the Language Proficiency Requirement (LPI) to be eligible to write the UBC exam.
4. You must register at the UBC for the "Real Estate Trading Services" course. Besides your study material you will also receive 20 assignments (400 questions in total) from the UBC, which you must complete within a year.
   • You have two years from the date you register at the UBC to pass the UBC Real Estate Licensing Exam.
5. Once you pass the UBC real estate exam, you have to complete the first 2 phases of the "Real Estate Trading Applied Course", and finally
6. You must join a brokerage to be eligible to apply for your BC real estate license.

The details of the above steps are in the “Licensing Process” tab.

YES! You need this calculator for your UBC real estate exam, and it is important to master it. Please purchase one from the UBC at the time of your registration.

Yes! It is very common for new Realtors® to split time between their current job and their new profession. Once they establish a solid client base and increase their real estate income, they shift permanently into their new role as a Realtor®.

We believe in planning ahead and proper preparation, therefore the following 2 prerequisites apply:

1 - You must be registered for the UBC real estate course.

2 - You must satisfy the English Language Proficiency Requirement of the BC Financial Services Authority.

We have these requirements in place so you can focus on your real estate course studies without distractions.

UBC constantly updates their course material.
Because of the challenging nature of the math and law sections, and the overall difficulty of the real estate licensing exam, we encourage anyone who is not 100% familiar with the latest real estate course material, to consider our real estate tutorial services.

If you do not pass the UBC exam the first time, you can re-take the exam one more time after 90 days.
If you attended and participated in all the twelve Excel Realty Academy classes consecutively, as well as the review/mock exam class after completing all classes per your schedule, completed all the homework, reviews, and lessons, and wrote the UBC exam within 5 weeks after completing your "Excel" schedule, while things are still fresh in your mind, you cannot fail the UBC exam!
However, should you fail the exam, you are welcome to re-enroll in our next available schedule for FREE! — no questions asked other than the proof of failure requirement, and you must re-enroll within 6 months after your 1st class and no fees charged.

The real estate licensing course at the UBC is a complex course that covers a wide variety of topics such as legal, mortgage, accounting and financial. It is offered as a correspondence course in a self-paced format — which means you are working alone. Because of this, many students find the UBC course difficult. Many students who go it alone either drop out or are suspended from the course because they are unable to complete the UBC requirements on time.

You can make payment with Cash, E-Transfer or PayPal. To secure your seat in class, please enroll 2 weeks before starting your classes. Tuition fees are fully payable with registration.

We do NOT offer instalment plans! — This is an ancient, low-level SCAM to hook people into something unworthy!
Someone who offers quality service or product definitely should know the value of their service or product and will NOT resort to such cheap tricks!
