I am thinking of going to school and getting my bachelors for Real Estate, but I am not sure if they make enough? Anyone know?

The amount an agent can make in any location is more a function of how much time and effort s/he puts into prospecting and following up. Join an office with a great training program, tag along with experienced and successful agents to use as mentors and then copy what works for them.
Real estate fees vary when you sell a home.. most realtor take a percentage of anywhere from 4-6% and then when the home sells.. the realtors (both buyer and seller) split the proceed per whatever the buyers proceed request is. For example: You sell a home for $400,000: The real estate commission is 4%.. then the total commission is $16,000 buyers realtor would get: $8,000 sellers realtor would get: $8,000 A realtor can make really good money, depending on how savvy and experienced they become. It also depends on the market.. and with a market like we are having now, I have seen a lot of them forced to make ends meet in other ways. Hope this helps. Good Luck!
Well, you get payed on commission so it depends on how many houses you sell. And since we're in a housing slump there aren't many houses being sold. Have you picked up a newspaper in the past 6 months?? There is a housing crisis! NO BUYERS! WAKE UP. If there was a house for sale, it would go to a veteran at times like this, not a newbie like yourself.
