Do I need to take the NM state exam if I’m licensed in another state?

No. You have to turn in your three course completion certificates with the examination registration form. PSI will then approve your exam eligibility, and you'll be able to schedule the exam after that.

Your course completion certificates are good for three years. You need to schedule and pass your New Mexico broker exam within that time limit.

First, send in the exam registration application found in the Candidate Information Bulletin. PSI will mail you a postcard once it approves your testing eligibility. Finally, go online to PSI to schedule your exam appointment.

The New Mexico state real estate licensing exam fee is $95. You'll pay PSI using a credit card. Exam fees are non-transferable and non-refundable.

You will directly pay PSI, the state’s exam provider, using a credit card. PSI accepts Visa, Mastercard, American Express, or Discover cards. All exam fees must be received in advance of the exam. Exam fees are non-transferable and non-refundable.

You can be registered and scheduled for the New Mexico broker license exam within an hour. Online scheduling is the quickest and easiest way to schedule the exam.

PSI operates testing centers in Albuquerque, Farmington, Las Cruces, Roswell, Santa Fe, and some locations in Colorado and Texas. Please go online to find the test center nearest you or find the addresses in the Candidate Information Bulletin.

You can be licensed through reciprocity if you are actively licensed in Massachusetts, Louisiana, and Georgia. If you are actively licensed in another state, you can apply for a waiver to the national section of the state exam. You'll need to send a certified license history to the New Mexico Real Estate Commission.

If you need to notify your exam appointment, you need to call PSI at 855-557-0621. Make any changes at least 48 hours in advance, or you will forfeit your exam fee. Please note that voicemails and emails do not count as changes to your exam appointment.
