I Just Passed My License Exam. Can I Start Selling Real Estate and Get Commissions?

Not yet.  You first need to affiliate (Join) a real estate firm and have the Broker-in-Charge agree to supervise you.  The BIC will activate your license. 

Does a "loan commitment letter" guarantee that I have a loan to buy the property?

No.  A loan commitment letter is like pre-qualification and does not guarantee that the lender will make the loan. It simply means that based upon an initial review your credit appears sufficient to qualify you for a loan.  A Pre-Approval letter is the best indicator of your ability to get a loan.  It is often sent with the offer to assure the seller that you can get a loan.

Yes, you should always get a new survey of the property.  The survey will show the location of buildings and other improvements to the property, as well as encroachments, easements and possible setback violations.  Make sure the acreage is what you are purchasing.  That row of trees may not be on your property.  Only way to find out for sure is with a survey.
