What offenses would disqualify me from receiving an MD License?
Maryland does not automatically disqualify someone for a real estate license if they have been convicted of a felony or misdemeanor. They weigh each conviction on a case-by-case basis and give the applicant the right to appeal if the application is denied. Your license application will need to include True Test copies of the preceding surrounding your conviction with the application.
