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?

I started in Real Estate in 1978 when I was 25 years old. t was very hard. I was hard on myself- why wasn't I selling as much as others? Most people when they leave real estate they say "I have to go get a real job.

Anytime you open your own business it's best to start out with money and a following or else you'll struggle.

Being a real estate agent is tough. If you expect to do little work in being a real estate agent you might want to pass on this career field. If you think all you will be doing is selling and listing houses, this job is not for you.

You work when your clients want you to work. If you are a listing agent (selling a house), you work in the office to get the house advertised and get other agents to show it - since you will almost always (hopefully) have multiple listings, this can be a lot of work and expense. In many brokerages, you will also be expected to help answer the phones. If you are a selling agent (work for a buyer), your hours are dependent upon your clients. You show houses when the client can make it - in many cases, evenings and weekends will be your busy time. If you don't work with your clients, they will find a different agent, so there is no way around giving up evenings and weekends. As you can probably guess, most agents represent both buyers and sellers, so they split their time.
