Should I choose SC-BFI or SC-DCA?
It depends on your employer. The South Carolina Board of Financial Institutions (SC-BFI) licenses mortgage lenders; the Department of Consumer Affairs (SC-DCA) licenses mortgage brokers. Both require 20 hours of NMLS-approved education including 3 hours of South Carolina law — but each accepts its own state course, so the SC-BFI and SC-DCA modules are not interchangeable. Check with your employer before you enrol.
Why is the package 23 hours if South Carolina requires 20?
Our 20-hour SAFE Comprehensive course is the national curriculum, so the 3 hours of South Carolina law come from the separate SC module for your regulator. Together that is 23 hours of coursework and it satisfies the requirement in full — both courses are NMLS-approved and reported for you.
Are there hidden fees?
No. The advertised tuition is the checkout tuition for the RealEstateU course package you select — there is no credit banking fee and nothing is added at checkout.
What if I change my mind?
Courses are eligible for a full refund within 72 hours of purchase, backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee.
