Tell me about your job as a realtor

N/A N/A
Posted

Hey everyone--

I am thinking of going to school to get my real estate license. Right now, I am going to school for Massage Therapy, but being as that is a very physical job, I would only work about 20 hours a week after I get my license, and I am wanting to do real estate sales on the side. I know the market is down right now, and I know that its not too easy to get your first sale. I love real estate tho, and I would like to do this. The problem is, I don't know much about the work life of an agent, so I would love it if everyone could tell me the pros and cons of being an agent. Also, what are some fees I can expect to incur (other than fees for the pre-licensing class, the exam, and the license and CEUs)?

TIA!
