I have been thinking of getting my real estate license in ny... is it a bad idea because of the economy or do you think it will benefit my family and I in the future?
i think it's a sound step for your future, eventually the economy will turn around it always does, our community college gives the classes for free on certain nights, maybe you can find a place that gives the classes for free or at a lower rate than usual. good luck
You misplaced me at bendy hours. Actually your hours are dictated by way of your consumers. And except you already know a ton of persons, in my view and professionally, it'll take you a whilst to rise up and going for walks OR rate you a fortune. For a few persons it is each. After pronouncing that, I love truly property. I possess a number of funding homes, I paintings with patrons, dealers, buyers and developers. If you will have the time to position into it you'll be able to make it it doesn't matter what form of marketplace.
My husband used to sell real estate when the economy was in much better shape, and there were more times of famine than times of plenty. Much of it depends upon where you live. And there's no way you can keep up with the changing housing market, unless you want to live like a gypsy and move all over the country. I would do some career searches that are in related categories, and see what the job market is for those jobs. I've heard that now is the time to go back to school, if you can afford to, and gain some more skills or get that doctorate. This is too big a deal to trust to strangers though. But, if it's ideas you want, I guess you came to the right place. Personally, I'd re-think the real estate business, and find something else. Eventually, the housing market will change, but it might take years. If you're wanting something more immediate, this isn't it. <*)))><
