Sample cards

Sample Anki card: A listing agent meets a Fresno homeowner to sign a listing; weeks later a buyer's agent writes an offer. When must each agent deliver the agency relationship disclosure form?

A listing agent meets a Fresno homeowner to sign a listing; weeks later a buyer's agent writes an offer. When must each agent deliver the agency relationship disclosure form?

The listing agent gives it to the seller before the listing agreement is signed. The buyer's agent gives it to the buyer as soon as practicable before the buyer signs the offer, and to the seller before the offer is presented. The agency relationships are then confirmed in the purchase contract or a separate writing.

Sample Anki card: A Sacramento seller hands the buyer the Transfer Disclosure Statement two days after the buyer's offer was accepted. The house is sold 'as-is.' What right does the buyer have?

A Sacramento seller hands the buyer the Transfer Disclosure Statement two days after the buyer's offer was accepted. The house is sold 'as-is.' What right does the buyer have?

Because the TDS arrived after the offer was signed, the buyer may terminate by written notice within 3 days of in-person delivery (5 days if it is mailed). Sellers of 1-4 residential units must deliver the TDS as soon as practicable before title transfers, and an 'as-is' sale does not waive it.

Sample Anki card: Lena buys a Los Angeles condo for $800,000 in 2025. Ignoring voter-approved bonds and assessments, what is her basic property tax, and the most her assessed value can be the next year?

Lena buys a Los Angeles condo for $800,000 in 2025. Ignoring voter-approved bonds and assessments, what is her basic property tax, and the most her assessed value can be the next year?

Her basic tax is $8,000: Proposition 13 caps the general levy at 1% of assessed value, and a change in ownership resets the base-year value to the $800,000 purchase price. After that, assessed value can rise at most 2% a year (less if inflation is lower), so next year's cap is $816,000 even if the market jumps.

How this deck compares

California DRE fails candidates on agency relationships and disclosure timing — not generic real estate trivia. Four hundred CA-only cards plus a 60-question mock (free 25-question version) beat a national Quizlet pack with a California sticker before you buy a full Aceable-style course.

California Real Estate study guide

What is inside

400 prompts across DRE salesperson topics: property ownership, land use, agency law, fiduciary duties, contracts, financing, transfers, disclosures (transfer disclosure statement, agency disclosure), and practice-of-real-estate regulations. Math cards cover prorations, commission splits, and loan-to-value setups.

Plan with the free CA mock

Complete pre-license coursework first, then 20 cards/day. Run the free California practice test at 30 days out; concentrate on agency and disclosure cards if those domains score lowest. California-specific disclosure timing is repeated more than national decks cover.

Official DRE salesperson exam is **150 questions / 3 hours / 70%** (one state exam — no separate national portion). Our mock is a **60-question** diagnostic (free 25-question version) — not a 1,500-question course Q-bank.

Pitfalls this deck targets

Applicants confuse agency relationships (seller's agent vs dual agent), disclosure delivery deadlines, and trust fund handling. Cards use California statutory framing.
