No, you can not have a felony conviction and get a real estate license unless you go in front of the board and get approval. There are a lot more real estate agents with felonies out there that you think.
Yes, the felony conviction only bars the convicted felon from possessing one.
no
If a felon cannot have a real estate license, but a former one can have. As long as they pass all the requirement and mandatory components that they need, they can get their real estate license. It also depends for the state's real estate commission if they will be accepting such cases, for example is on Texas Real Estate License
The answer for the most part is no. In Michigan, you will not be able to get a real estate license if the nature of your crime was financial in nature. The board can also reject the application of anyone whom they deem to have a history which shows a pattern of dishonesty.
A felony conviction generally prevents you from getting a real estate or any other type of professional license, all the license statues require you to be of "high moral character" which is presumed in the law to not be the case of felons.

You're not eligible for a real estate license if your a convicted felon ... Some agencies might waive that requirement if you provide an explanation as to the nature of the crime.
