Thinking of getting RE license and a few questions
I have a few questions on getting a real estate license. It looks like there are two types...Real Estate Sales or Brokers license.
My ultimate goal would be to get a Brokers license, but before I dive in and get a real estate sales license, I need to find out what happens after that. To be honest I'm not interested in becoming a full or part time agent as I already have a small business I own/run. However, I would like to get my license in hopes that I can act as my own agent in pursuing investment properties.
Perhaps you all can give me some direction on this before I dive in.
- Once I have my license can I write offers directly to sellers agents or do I have to be working for a broker to do that?
- Do I have to go to work for a broker for a minimal amount of time before I can pursue a broker license?
- How difficult is the test? I see that the classes are 120 hours of courses. How much studying (hours in a day, etc.,) did you need to do before you were ready to take (and pass) the exam?
