Obtaining a Real Estate License with a Criminal Record.

Pretty much everyone knows that the San Jose area is a hot bed for real estate right now.  Unfortunately, The California Business and Professions Code grants the Department of Real Estate the right to deny a license based on anyone’s previous criminal record.  This includes misdemeanors AND felonies anywhere in the US!

Count on the DRE to investigate each case individually to determine if a conviction warrants denial.  In addition to the conviction, aggravating factors will also be considered in their decision.  Here is some advice…come clean!  One of the basic requirements to apply for a license is honesty.

I want to help you get started or continue working in real estate sales.  My name is William Chestnut, a criminal defense attorney out of San Jose serving the entire area.  I have helped many people retain their real estate license in the past.  Why not give me a call and see how we may work together?  The phone number is (408) 298-6990.
