Hawaii Elite Real Estate Academy Students
Within the last 20 years, if you have one or more felonies or one or more misdemeanors in your history, outstanding tax obligations with no payment plan in place, judgments please contact the Real Estate Branch, 1-800-784-8396, and determine whether or not you should file the Preliminary Decision Application prior to completing a prelicense course. The Preliminary Decision Application will allow the Hawaii Real Estate Commission to review your history and make a determination of either MOST LIKELY APPROVE or MOST LIKELY DENY your license application when submitted. The decision of the Commission is non-binding, and a license candidate may submit his or her license application no matter what the Commission’s decision is for the Preliminary Decision Application. The Preliminary Decision gives the license candidate a window of probability as to the acceptance or denial of a license application, so that the license candidate does not waste time and money on a prelicense course, if the likelihood of denial is evident.
