Georgia issues real estate licenses with a four-year renewal cycle — longer than the two-year standard in most states — and requires a substantial 36 hours of continuing education at each renewal.

The Atlanta metropolitan area consistently ranks among the top 10 most active real estate markets in the U.S., with strong demand driven by corporate relocations — Delta, Coca-Cola, CNN, and hundreds of Fortune 500 companies call Atlanta home — and a fast-growing population that keeps the housing supply persistently tight.
