Real Estate
|
Getting into the real estate business can be one of the most rewarding,
yet tiresome occupations out there. Whether the rewards outweigh the
downfalls of the position really does depend on the person looking into
the career. If you are a family-oriented person or someone who likes
to spend a lot of time to themselves or enjoying the more leisurely
things in life and you are really not looking to give these things up
(at least for a while), real estate may not be the right gig for you.
Generally, getting settled into the real estate business can take up
to six months, or even a year! Of course, a year does sound like an
extremely long time to get into an occupation, but if you think about
it and take into consideration all of the steps that are involved, that
time frame is fairly reasonable. All real estate agents start out in
pre-licensing schools. Pre licensing schools are basically classes
that teach prospective real estate agents the ins and outs of the business
itself. In such classes, laws, dos and don’ts of the business, basic
rules, and sales tips are all discussed in detail. Pre licensing real
estate classes can take up to three whole months to complete, and successful
completion of the classes should lead to a successful passing of the
real estate examination. Passing the real estate exam is nothing like
the SAT however; it takes long hours of studying minute little details
as well as broad, more general real estate information to successfully
complete the course and pass the exam the first time. And passing the
exam on the first time is always the goal!
After completing the required pre licensing courses and passing the
real estate licensing exam, there is the actual time frame that it takes
to get into business to consider. Of course, you are going to have
to decide if you want to go into business for yourself or go to work
for a real estate company, such as RE/MAX or Century 21. Do take into
consideration that it might not be the smartest idea in the world to
immediately go into business for yourself, and there are several reasons
for this. The first is that when you are just becoming licensed and
getting into the real estate business, you don't know if you want to
do this for sure or not. Sure, you think you do and that was why you
decided to spend all of your money on time on classes and exams, but
the reason real estate agencies are always hiring is because the turnover
rate in that line of work is extremely high. Like most other sales
jobs--the real estate business is NOT for everyone, and do you really
want to find out that you hate your line of work after you have signed
a 12-month lease on an office space and hired a secretary? I didn't
think so.
The best advice is to start out at one of your local agencies, and if
you are good and you enjoy what you do work up from there. Have fun,
and if you devote yourself to the business and you are good at it, your
efforts will most definitely pay off.
