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

Rhode Island does not list any specific disqualifications for a prior criminal history. If you have questions, you should directly contact the Department of Business Regulation.

You are most likely to be disqualified from receiving a Rhode Island Real Estate salesperson license if your prior convictions have to do with dishonesty or untrustworthiness.

Your prior criminal activity will be revealed to the Commission when you make your license application. The application requires you to include a criminal history report from the Rhode Island Department of the Attorney General and answer some questions on the application itself.
