DE-RE-S practice questions - frequently asked questions

Plain answers about how DE-RE-S Exam Prep works: the exam, the questions, pricing, the free trial, and what you actually get.

No - and you should be wary of any site claiming otherwise. Every question here is original, written to mirror the style, difficulty, and judgment the real DE-RE-S exam tests. Each one comes with a plain-language explanation of why the right answer is right and the others aren't.

The DE-RE-S exam spans 12 domains: REAL PROPERTY CHARACTERISTICS, LEGAL DESCRIPTIONS, AND PROPERTY USE (13.75% of the exam); FORMS OF OWNERSHIP, TRANSFER, AND RECORDING OF TITLE (11.25% of the exam); PROPERTY VALUE AND APPRAISAL (13.75% of the exam); REAL ESTATE CONTRACTS AND AGENCY (20% of the exam); REAL ESTATE PRACTICE (12.5% of the exam); PROPERTY DISCLOSURES AND ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES (11.25% of the exam); FINANCING AND SETTLEMENT (8.75% of the exam); REAL ESTATE MATH CALCULATIONS (8.75% of the exam); DUTIES AND POWERS OF THE REAL ESTATE COMMISSION (10% of the exam); LICENSING REQUIREMENTS (7.5% of the exam); STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS GOVERNING THE ACTIVITIES OF LICENSEES (42.5% of the exam); ADDITIONAL STATE TOPICS (40% of the exam). Every practice question on this site is tagged to one of these domains.

The domains are not weighted equally on the exam. By share of the marks: STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS GOVERNING THE ACTIVITIES OF LICENSEES 42.5%; ADDITIONAL STATE TOPICS 40%; REAL ESTATE CONTRACTS AND AGENCY 20%; REAL PROPERTY CHARACTERISTICS, LEGAL DESCRIPTIONS, AND PROPERTY USE 13.75%; PROPERTY VALUE AND APPRAISAL 13.75%; REAL ESTATE PRACTICE 12.5%; FORMS OF OWNERSHIP, TRANSFER, AND RECORDING OF TITLE 11.25%; PROPERTY DISCLOSURES AND ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES 11.25%; DUTIES AND POWERS OF THE REAL ESTATE COMMISSION 10%; FINANCING AND SETTLEMENT 8.75%; REAL ESTATE MATH CALCULATIONS 8.75%; LICENSING REQUIREMENTS 7.5%.
