Becoming a real estate agent in Utah
Hi all,
I am currently active duty military stationed at Hill AFB, UT. I have about 2 years left before I separate and want to start a new career as a real estate agent.
I'm considering getting my license while I'm still in to learn and maybe work as an assistant (because I can only work part time until I'm out).
For the pre-licensing courses, I'm trying to decide between stringham, praedo, and harman. Anyone have experience with either of these institutions? Also, is it difficult to find a sponsor at a brokerage?
Any information would be greatly appreciated and I apologize if I'm posting in the wrong forum.
Respectfully,
Joe Lee

Hey Joseph, that sounds like a solid plan! I'd say jump in, if it is what you really wan to do, and give it a whirl, I'm sure you could pick up a few deals.
I did my licensing with Stringham and enjoyed it. I know they recently updated it as well. Can't speak to the others necessarily. The board of realtors also just started a class I believe so that might be something to look into also.
You will not have a problem finding a brokerage. EVERY Brokerage is going to want you to work there, so keep in mind that YOU have the control/power of choosing where to go based on culture, features, splits, pros/cons, etc.
Good luck!
