What the Course Entails and Exam Details

This practice exam serves as a simulated testing environment for the state-specific content you will encounter on the official Oklahoma Real Estate licensing exam.

This course covers extensive national real estate principles and detailed Oklahoma-specific laws. This practice test focuses on refining your knowledge of the state-specific section. Core topics covered within the practice test, based on the OREC syllabus, include:

• Oklahoma Real Estate License Code: The core laws governing the real estate profession in the state.

• Oklahoma Broker Relationships Act: Specific rules on agency and non-agency relationships and disclosures.

• Trust Accounts: Requirements for handling and accounting for tenant deposits and owner funds.

• Property Management Agreements: Essential components and requirements for management contracts.

• Leasing and Tenancy: State laws regarding landlord-tenant relationships, evictions, and lease disclosures.

• Fair Housing in Oklahoma: Relevant federal and state-specific fair housing regulations.

How to Study and Exam Centers

Preparation is key to succeeding on the state exam. Here are actionable study strategies:

• Use the Practice Test: Take the Oklahoma Property Management Practice Test multiple times. Analyze your results to identify weak areas and understand the phrasing of state-specific questions.

• Master the Candidate Handbook: Thoroughly read and study the current 'Oklahoma Real Estate Candidate Handbook' from Pearson VUE. It contains the official exam content outline and sample questions.

• Focus on State-Specific Documents: Pay close attention to the full text of the Oklahoma Real Estate License Code and the Broker Relationships Act. These are the foundations of the state portion.

• Real Estate Math: Don't forget to practice real estate math, especially calculations related to property management, such as pro-rating rent and security deposits.

• Exam Centers: The official exam is administered through Pearson VUE at authorized testing centers located throughout Oklahoma, including major cities like Oklahoma City and Tulsa. In addition, OREC may offer a remote proctored online testing option for convenience. You must first apply to OREC for eligibility, and once approved, you can register and schedule your exam with Pearson VUE.
