Budget for course fees, exam and registration costs, the criminal record check, and SREC registration. Costs change over time, so confirm the current figures with the provincial program before you enrol.

Q: Do I need a degree to become a REALTOR® in Saskatchewan?

The Path To

Getting Licensed

STEP 1

Complete Your Education

Finish the required Phase 1 and Phase 2 licensing courses through the recognized provincial program.

STEP 2

Meet the Requirements

Satisfy the age, education, residency, language and background-check requirements set by SREC.

STEP 3

Choose a Brokerage

STEP 4

Register with SREC

Complete your registration with the Saskatchewan Real Estate Commission and start practising.

Step 1

Step 1: Complete Your Education

Phase 1 – The Foundation. The first step toward becoming a licensed real estate salesperson or property manager in Saskatchewan is completing the introductory course. It covers provincial real estate law, ethics and professional responsibilities, property ownership and title registration, valuation and financing, and the fundamentals of agency and contract law.

Phase 2 – Your Specialization. After Phase 1, you choose the Phase 2 course(s) for your intended area of practice:

Residential: Phase 1 + Residential Real Estate as a Professional Career
Commercial: Phase 1 + Residential + Commercial Real Estate as a Professional Career
Farm: Phase 1 + Residential + Farm Real Estate as a Professional Career
Property Management: Phase 1 + Property Management as a Professional Career

English Language Proficiency. Because Saskatchewan real estate education and contracts are in English, you must meet the English Language Proficiency Requirement (ELPR). There are no prerequisites to enrol in Phase 1, but it’s recommended you meet the ELPR before you start.

Step 2

Step 2: Meet Eligibility Requirements

To qualify for real estate registration in Saskatchewan, you must:

Be at least 18 years old
Hold a Canadian high-school diploma (or equivalent) or a recognized post-secondary credential
Meet the English Language Proficiency Requirement (ELPR)
Be a Canadian citizen, permanent resident, or hold a valid work permit
Provide government-issued photo ID and a recent photo for online registration
Complete a criminal record check with fingerprint verification

Steps 3 & 4

Steps 3 & 4: Choose a Brokerage & Register with SREC

Step 3 – Choose a Brokerage. Once your education and eligibility are in place, you choose the brokerage you will register under. This is one of the most important decisions you will make: your brokerage determines the training, leads, technology, and culture that shape your first years.Brokerage Decision Matrix: When comparing brokerages, evaluate each on these criteria. Commission split and fees: what percentage does the brokerage keep and are there desk fees or caps? Training and mentorship quality: is there a structured program with a dedicated mentor who meets weekly? Technology and CRM tools: does the brokerage provide a CRM, MLS access, and marketing platforms? Lead generation support: do you get brokerage-generated leads or are you entirely on your own? Culture and office environment: do agents collaborate or compete? Location and flexibility: is the office convenient and does the brokerage support remote or hybrid work? Independence level: how much freedom do you have to run your business your way?Interview at least 3 to 5 brokerages before deciding. Ask to speak with new agents who have been there 6-12 months to hear honest feedback. A 2% better commission split means nothing if the brokerage does not help you find your first client.
