Planning on getting my real estate license in Georgia. However, I don’t know whether to go commercial or residential. Can someone give me some insight on what is the best to go into right now in this market or should I even get my real estate license? Thanks for all the help!

@Chandler Butler

If you can be patient not making any money for 2 years then commercial may be worth a try but your best bet getting into commercial is as an analyst. Its hard for go commercial because its so much technical knowledge and experience is needed. Unless you want to do leaseups and chase alot of people who want to startup a business and are poor leads the barrier is extremely high.
