How this list was compiled: Written from Utah Code Title 61, Chapter 2f (the Real Estate Licensing and Practices Act, the Legislature's chapter file with the 2026 General Session amendments) and Utah Code 25-5-4, 38-1a-502, 57-1-24, 57-1-37, 57-19-12 and 73-3-1, as published by the Utah Legislature at https://le.utah.gov/xcode/Title61/Chapter2F/61-2f.html, and from Utah Administrative Code R162-2f (effective 08/16/2023) as published by the Office of Administrative Rules at https://adminrules.utah.gov/public/rule/R162-2f/Current%20Rules, all read 2026-10-13. The spread of topics follows the Utah Real Estate State Broker Licensing Examination Content Outline (Utah laws, rules and regulations, effective July 15, 2016) published with the Utah Real Estate Candidate Handbook of July 2024 (outline: https://www.pearsonvue.com/content/dam/VUE/vue/en/documents/publications/094502.pdf) for the Utah Division of Real Estate, whose licensing page is https://commerce.utah.gov/realestate/real-estate/licensing/. Licence: Own work. Questions, answer choices and explanations were written for this site from the statute and rule text; nothing is copied from another practice test, a prep book or the state exam. Short quotations from the statutes and rules are marked.

The broker's state outline
The Utah broker state outline in the Candidate Handbook has 90 scored questions. Licensee practice is the largest section at 33 to 35, then licensing 15 to 17 and disciplinary action 9 to 11. Closing statements, 6 to 8, are arithmetic and left out here.
What a principal broker is asked
Trust account limits and monthly reconciliation, a transaction status statement every 30 days, written supervision policies, branch registration, and the 14 days a brokerage has to replace a principal broker who dies.
No overlap with the sales agent bank
None of these 60 repeats a question on the Utah sales agent page, so the two pages together give 115 questions on Utah law.
No more than $1,000 of the broker's own money may sit in a real estate trust account (R162-2f-403a).
A broker applicant documents at least 60 experience points from the last five years (R162-2f-202b).
An acting principal broker takes no new clients and serves at most four months (R162-2f-202e).
Questions and answers
How many questions are on the Utah real estate broker exam?
The state broker outline lists 90 scored questions and 5 to 10 unscored pretest questions, and the national outline lists 80 scored. The Candidate Handbook allows four hours for the examination.
What score passes the Utah broker exam?
The Candidate Handbook gives the broker examination a passing scaled score of 75 on the general and on the state component, and says a scaled score is not the number or percentage of questions answered correctly.
What are the requirements for a Utah broker license?
Rule R162-2f-202b asks for 120 hours of broker prelicensing education, three years of full-time licensed experience in the last five (or two plus one year of other qualifying experience) and at least 60 documented experience points.
Are these the questions on the real Utah broker exam?
No. They are our own, written from the Utah Code and the rule, and the real exam is not public. The national part and the closing statement arithmetic are outside this page.
