You do not have to be 21, or a minimum of no longer in a couple of states. I bought my real estate license at the age of 19 and have been/and can most likely be running as an assistant until this summer time at the same time I will start being a entire time real estate agent. Most so much most likely a organization will take you in, nonetheless preserve in mind that advertising expensive houses and gaining admire will most likely be extra tricky than you on the begin imagined, mainly if you are comfortably advertising as a aspect challenge.
Liz, It is an always interesting business, even after 40 years. Start with your state department of real estate web site. That will detail what you need to do and provide you with the appropriate forms. The site usually lists approved education vendors as well, to help you decide where to do your 60 hours. Another option may be your local junior college or adult education program system. You may also wish to contact a few local real estate offices for more information. Some of these offer training, or can refer you to recommended education vendors. You will also learn a lot about what is required of an agent and may begin to form an idea of which company you will want to work with once you have your license. If you have time available, you may be able to apprentice with a successful agent to get a closer look at what the career involves before you make the time and money investment for the license. If you don't yet have relevant work experience in the field, this is an excellent way to get it - even if you work for free in the beginning. Making yourself invaluable to an employer is an excellent way to get to where you want to be. Warmest regards,
