How to access the digital and print versions of the NC Real Estate Manual

Did you know that the NC Real Estate Manual is available in web-based and print versions?

The web-based version of the Manual was first introduced in 2019, featuring easy navigation and searching, as well as new visual elements such as comic strips and assessments. Since then, functionality has expanded to include highlighting and note-taking features. The web-based version is updated when there are changes in License Law and Commission rules, so it is always current.
