Hello everyone!
I'm as new as they come to this forum but am appreciating all the great advice. However, it seems as though my subject is quite unique...
In 1999, I passed the real estate principles course, applied for the R.E. exam, passed the exam, submitted the application and the $700 fee to the CA dept of R.E., and was denied my license due to my past criminal history which included a conviction for passport fraud in 1989-90 and various other smaller offenses, but the fraud being the prominent case that, I believe, was the reason for my denial.
I was told that I could appeal... I didn't. I just gave up on trying and left the profession.
Now, 6 years later, I'm back in the profession and hoping to try for a license again.
Knowing that I'll probably get denied again, I hope I could get a few questions answered:
1. Is it possible to get a restricted license?
2. If so, what rules usually apply to a person with a restricted license?
3. I'm working to stay afloat right now... If I need legal assistance, is there a cheaper route I can take than paying retainer to some attorney and getting gouged for the little money I currently make.
4. Would anyone out there like to help me on this in a pro-bono status with promise to pay when my pipeline starts filling and cash starts to flow?
Please let me know...
