Can I get my Hawaii salesperson license if I have a prior conviction?

The Hawaii Real Estate Commission is more likely to deny your license application if you have a criminal conviction such as a felony, misdemeanor, or court-martial, including convictions for DUI, drug abuse, tax liens, unpaid judgments, disciplinary action for licensing, or are currently serving parole or probation. You can request a preliminary judgment from the Real Estate Commission before starting the licensing process
