Make this your plan

Everyone fails in a different spot. Put in the topic scores from your last practice-exam results page, and the quiz plus the schedule reshape around your weak areas.

Your schedule

Twenty focused minutes a day beats a three-hour cram you'll skip. Consistency is the whole plan. Each Quiz round is 20 questions, so one round IS one session. Add your exam date above and this turns into a day-by-day countdown.

Days1–4
State Laws & RulesUsually the toughest topic, so it goes first while you're freshest. Quiz Me → filter "State Laws." One round a day, read every explanation out loud.
Days5–8
Finance & ClosingThe math scares people but it's two formulas: transfer tax and intangible tax. Quiz "Finance," then drill those two cards until they're automatic.
Days9–11
Mixed + weak spotsQuiz "★ Weak Areas" (your hard topics together). Anything you miss twice, write on a sticky note and stick it where you'll see it.
Days12–14
Full simulationRun "All Topics" a few rounds back-to-back. Score 80% or better two days running and you walk in ready. Then take the real exam.

How to actually remember it

1

Quiz, don't re-read. Answering a question wrong and seeing why sticks 5x better than highlighting notes. That's what the Quiz tab is for. Every round pulls fresh questions, so you learn the rule, not the answer's position.

2

Same trigger, every day. Tie it to something you already do, right after your morning coffee, in the school pickup line. You skip because there's no anchor, so give it one.

3

Miss it twice? Say it out loud. Explaining the answer in your own words is the fastest fix for "I read it but can't recall it."

4

Short and daily wins. 20 minutes × 14 days beats one panicked weekend. Nobody passes on one heroic cram. They pass on reps.

State Laws & Rules · your #1 target
The Commission (GREC): 6 members serving 5-year terms. 5 must have held a broker's license 5+ years; the 6th is a public member. The governor appoints all six and the state senate confirms them.
GREC's power: it may grant, deny, suspend, revoke, or sanction licenses — for both individuals AND firms. It cannot jail anyone.
Who issues your license: the Georgia Real Estate Commission (GREC) — not the association of REALTORS®, not the governor.
Injunctions: GREC can request one, but only the Georgia Attorney General has authority to bring injunctive action against a licensee.
3-year rule: GREC won't investigate a complaint about anything that happened more than 3 years ago. A sworn written complaint is the most effective way to trigger one.
Ages: salesperson at least 18 + high school diploma/GED; broker at least 21. No diploma/GED = disqualified. A felony within about 5 years = likely denial (a 15-year-old felony, long since served, is usually fine).
Broker upgrade: an extra 60 hours of broker coursework on top of the salesperson requirements.
Education timeline: 25 hours of post-licensing in your first year (miss it and your license lapses). Then 36 hours of CE every 4-year renewal — that's 9 hours a year if you spread it, and 3 must be the Georgia license-law course.
Recovery Fund: exists to reimburse the public, funded by license holders. Max one claim pays is $25,000. A consumer must exhaust other legal remedies first.
Trust funds: turn them over to your qualifying broker as soon as possible; keep them in a dedicated trust account. Mixing them into the business account is illegal commingling.
Discipline ladder: a citation is the lesser penalty; a sanction is heavier. You have 30 days to appeal a hearing decision. You must notify GREC of a criminal conviction immediately.
Deception ladder: lying to get business = an unfair trade practice. Group-boycotting a vendor = Georgia Uniform Deceptive Trade Practices Act. Lying to a lender = a fraudulent act (GRMFA covers anyone in the lending chain).
Advertising: every page of your website needs your license status and number. A phone number is optional. Update changed online ads within 30 days.
County tax: a county can charge a broker a gross-receipts tax even with no office there; it can't charge a fixed tax unless the broker keeps a physical office in that county.
Records: keep sales contracts for 3 years. Fair housing complaints must be filed within 1 year.
Recovery Fund detail: the fund must keep a $1 million minimum balance. Max $25,000 per transaction, $25,000 lifetime per recipient, and $75,000 total per licensee. Consumers have 2 years to file a claim.
GREC's limits: it doesn't touch earnest money, repair, commission, or fee disputes — those are contract law, handled by courts. GREC can't compel a licensee to pay damages, only discipline the license.
Penalty caps: fines up to $1,000 per violation, capped at $5,000 for multiple violations in one hearing.
Two different unfair-practice laws: Georgia's Fair Business Practices Act needs an actual consumer transaction to prosecute. The Uniform Deceptive Trade Practices Act (UDTPA) does NOT — no transaction required.
Licensure exemptions: attorneys handling real property solely as legal service, CPAs, utility employees, government employees, HOA/community-association full-time employees, and people who refer prospects (no upfront fee, max 3 referrals a year). The "innkeeper exemption" covers rentals of 90 days or fewer.
Veteran exam credit: 5-point credit for honorable discharge after 1+ year active duty (incl. 90+ days wartime); 10-point credit for a disabled veteran with 10%+ wartime-related incapacitation.
Commission organization: 4 members = a quorum. GREC meets at least monthly and is funded entirely by license fees, not tax dollars — members select their own chairperson.
Qualifying broker duty: review all offers and contracts written by associated licensees for compliance within 30 days of execution.
Finance & Closing · your #2 target
Transfer tax: based on the SALE price. $0.10 per $100 = sale price × .001. A $215,000 home → $215. Usually paid by the seller.
Intangible tax: based on the LOAN amount. $1.50 per $500 (max $25,000). Usually paid by the buyer. Don't mix these two up — that's the classic trap.
Selling a mortgage: the note is endorsed, the mortgage is assigned. When the loan is paid off, the holder signs the note, marks it "Paid in Full," and returns it.
Security deed (Georgia's norm): borrower = grantor, lender = grantee. Plain-English: mortgagor = borrower, mortgagee = lender.
Deed of trust roles: trustor = borrower, beneficiary = lender, trustee = neutral third party who holds the trust.
Title: under a mortgage the borrower holds title; under a security deed the lender holds it until the loan is paid.
Due-on-sale clause = the alienation clause; the lender's permission is needed before a buyer can assume the loan.
Foreclosure: the power-of-sale clause allows non-judicial foreclosure. First step is notifying the borrower and trying to cure the default. If the sale doesn't cover the debt, a deficiency judgment can follow.
Redemption in Georgia (a known trap): statutory right of redemption = buying it back AFTER the sale, but it only exists in judicial foreclosures. Georgia mostly uses non-judicial foreclosure, so there's no right of redemption after the sale except for tax sales.
Deeds: a valid deed needs the grantor and grantee names and the granting words "hereby conveys." Transferring title takes delivery and acceptance.
Chain of title: trace back 50 years with no gaps for marketable title.
Closing: the closing attorney runs the meeting and, afterward, records the deed. The seller owns the property until closing is complete. Taxes prorate on a 365-day calendar year (Jan 1–Dec 31).
GAFLA = Georgia Fair Lending Act: bans excessive late fees and financing of credit insurance; covers loan brokers, servicers, and assignees; exempts insurance providers.
Real Estate Practice · keep it steady
No end date on a brokerage engagement? It terminates 1 year after it began.
Key clauses: Time is of the Essence = every date is strictly enforceable. Entire Agreement = this is the only contract. Survival of the Agreement = some obligations continue after closing.
"Exclusive" buyer agreement: the buyer agrees to work with only one broker. Dual agency is legal in Georgia only with both parties' consent.
Buyer as a customer (not a client): the broker can only do ministerial tasks, no advocacy or negotiating price. A designated agent owes the same duties as a single agent.
Security deposits, 10+ units: hold in escrow and tell each tenant in writing which bank. When a leased property sells, the original owner transfers or refunds the deposits.
Eviction starts when the landlord files an affidavit (dispossessory) with the court.
Unlicensed assistant may assemble closing documents and calculate commissions — but not solicit, host an open house, explain listing info, or interpret contracts.
Written or not: real estate contracts must be in writing, except a lease of one year or less. Commission rates are never standard — always negotiable.
Corporate firm: the qualifying broker must be an officer of the corporation, and cannot delegate trust-account supervision. Seller disclosure of known issues is required even without the form.
Sales contract also goes by: offer to purchase, purchase agreement, purchase contract.
Listing agreement types: exclusive right-to-sell (broker gets paid no matter who finds the buyer, even the seller) vs. exclusive agency (no commission owed if the seller sells it themselves) vs. open (seller can use multiple brokers). Net listings are illegal in Georgia.
BRRETA ministerial acts: for buyer customers, licensees may only do tasks that don't require judgment or discretion — preparing/submitting offers, locating an inspector — never advising on price or terms.
Property management contracts must specify: who holds security deposits and prepaid rent, the manager's compensation, and a beginning/ending date.
HOA vs POA: a mandatory HOA means anyone who owns property there must join. Under the Property Owners Association Act, delinquent owners face automatic statutory liens (no recording needed).
Community Association Manager (CAM): works as agent of their broker, not the association's board directly. Brokers managing associations responsible for $60,000+ must carry a fidelity bond or fidelity insurance.
Business brokerage: credentials like ABI (Accredited Business Intermediary) or CBI (Certified Business Intermediary) are optional designations, not license requirements, for those brokering the sale of a business.
