Hello,

  My name is Andrew and I live in Rhode Island, and I'm 38.  I will be taking, and passing, my real estate test next week.

I have spoken with a few brokers and I think I found one that I like.  They offer a 50 - 50 split, which is a little lower than I would like.  However they offer mountains of training, pay for your advertising materials, set you up with a list of 50 to 75 addresses for mailers, and pay 25% of your photo and video expenses.  Overall they are looking for you to succeed and not just be another realtor under their broker.

My experience: I owned apartment buildings in Providence for years, and handled all the day to day items, including the evictions.

I'm looking for any advice or direction that others can offer.  Is working under an established broker a good route for me to take given the current real estate environment? Do you have any other suggestions for someone just getting start in real estate as a full time job?

Any other info you can provide would be greatly appreciated. 

Thank you

Andrew
