Question:

how do you become a real estate agent in ny?

i have a internship who wants me to pay 149 dollars for classes to become one? im new into the world of real estate. Can someone please enlighten me

Answer:

I's search for an accredit online course - that way you can go at your own pace, work if you want to while your taking the classes - I'd look into classes even after you get your license that are geared toward property management for investors and home owners are hiring them all the time and here anyway practically every agent does some management because the income of strictly sales can go up and down and during the slow sales times some do strictly evictions other do everything
The rules vary by state. Check in with your state real estate commission and it's association of REALTORS for sure. I am an agent in Texas and here you have to have graduated high school to become licensed. College just helps cut down on the number of real estate classes that you have to take before you can take your test. Good Luck--it's a fun field!
First, carol is WRONG. DO the classes in person. The ONLY reason for the class is to pass the test. There is a lot of material. Go to the NY real estate commission website. It explains what is needed. 149 is a fair price for the class
You would need to complete the required real estate courses of New York in order to take the real estate examination. You would then take the real estate exam. Normally you would be required to have two checks in order to take the real estate examination. One check would be for the test proctors and the other would be for the New York real estate license department to apply for your license. Once you have passed the required real estate courses and have your real estate license, you would be required to prepare and make a marketing plan where you are able to meet potential clients that would want to list house through you or purchase houses through you. This plan should reflect your personality and things you like to do and play to your strengths. You would want to try making this marketing so as not to spend time making cold calls speaking to strangers and avoid the Do Not Call List. I hope this has been of some benefit to you, good luck.
