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

If you have been convicted of a felony or a crime of moral turpitude or violated any civil rights laws in real estate within the past two years, you will not be able to get a real estate license.

Ohio does not issue salesperson licenses to anyone convicted of a felony or a crime of moral turpitude. You also cannot have violated any civil rights laws in real estate within the past two years.

You will disclose any prior criminal activity in your salesperson exam application under the ethical conduct section. If you answer yes, you will be required to submit additional paperwork regarding your answer.
