How long do you have to go to school for, what do you start out doing, and what exactly does your job like on a daily basis after you start?

The first thing you need to do is go to real estate school. Many community colleges offer the course. It usually takes a semester and then you have to take your state real estate exam. Once you pass that, you need to check out a few agencies such as REMAX, Century 21, etc. You are interviewing them because each agency offers different programs. For example, at REMAXX you will pay a high office fee but virtually no percentage to them from your commission. At another agency, you pay a lower office fee and a higher percentage from your commission ( example, if your commission is 3% , you would have to give half of that to the agency.) You are basically self employed at this point and have to go find customers and market yourself. It is a cutthroat business, but you can make alot of money if you do it right.
