1. What is required to become a real estate agent2. How long will that process take (estimate?, shortest time and longet time possible please)?
however long it is .. you will be wasting your time.. people are giving away free blow jobs and azz to sell a house.. unless you are will to compete then dont waste your money or learning the bs fmls has to offer!! try cable and sattelite school for 10 months way more money to be made there!!!
Wow, on the first answer. I am a new agent (1 year) and have been VERY successful in this down market. Basically you need to search for the Real Estate Commission in your state. There you can find a list of approved schools and what is required. The courses aren't too bad and generally you can take the course on line and as quickly as you can get it done. Find a Good agency to work with after you get your license. It is expensive as you have to join Realtor boards, the companies themselves. Get with a Well-Known company (ie. REMAX (who I am with) and you will reap the benefits of their name. Good Luck.
You can find out your states requirements by going to google and typing in Real estate requirements in ________ Most states require 60 hours of class time before you can take the tests.
