Can you hold a real estate license in two states?

Yes, you sure can hold a real estate license in two or even more states. There's no universal rule against it and many realtors do this, especially if they live near a state border. However, it's not as simple as just applying for a second license. Each state has its own laws and requirements, so you might need to complete additional education or pass another exam. It's essential to research and understand the specific licensing requirements of each state you're interested in.
