Ohio still recognizes Dower Rights, a concept abolished in most other states, and the ODRE tests it every single exam.
Dower Rights are mentioned in passing in most national courses, if at all. Ohio’s version carries specific signature requirements and title implications that only a state specific course covers accurately. Generic prep platforms and AI generated banks treat Ohio like any other common law state. Ohio’s exam tests rules that require Ohio specific preparation.
The License Professor is written by licensed Ohio real estate professionals who built questions around the PSI state exam’s actual priorities. From dower rights to blockbusting disclosure requirements in written agency agreements, every question reflects what Ohio tests.
Three Topics that Trip Up Ohio Students Most
Dower Rights
Ohio is one of only six states still recognizing dower rights, granting a surviving spouse a one-third life estate — the exam hammers the requirement that both spouses must sign the deed to release dower, even if only one is on title.
Consumer Guide to Agency
Ohio requires the Consumer Guide to Agency Relationships printed in no smaller than 14-point font and delivered to sellers before any showing — miss the precise timing and formatting requirements and you miss the question.
Dual Agency Consent
Written consent from both parties is required, and the agent must disclose all relevant information for an "informed decision" — plus the client’s right to refuse dual agency and seek other representation.
The Ohio Real Estate License Professor includes specialized deep dives for each of these.
