How to become a PRC Accredited Real Estate Salesperson?
Thinking of starting a career in real estate? Becoming a PRC-accredited Real Estate Salesperson is the perfect first step. As a salesperson, you can work under the supervision of a licensed real estate broker, assist clients in buying and selling properties, and earn commissions — all while gaining valuable industry experience.
Under the Real Estate Service Act of the Philippines (RESA Law), Republic Act No. 9646, a Real Estate Salesperson is defined as:
“A duly accredited natural person who performs service for, and in behalf of, a real estate broker for or in expectation of a share in the commission, professional fee, compensation or other valuable consideration.”
This means you cannot operate independently — you must work under a licensed Real Estate Broker and be accredited by the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC).
Here’s your complete guide to getting accredited, including the requirements from PRC and DHSUD.
