Who regulates MLO licensing in South Dakota?
South Dakota mortgage loan originators are licensed through the NMLS and regulated by the South Dakota Division of Banking. South Dakota has no state-specific education requirement — you complete the 20-hour national SAFE course, 20 hours total, then pass the SAFE exam.
Do I need a South Dakota state module?
No. South Dakota does not require state-specific pre-license education, so the 20-hour national SAFE course covers your full requirement. There is nothing else to buy.
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.
