Wanting to Switch Careers and Get into Real Estate

[Garrett Tomini]

Over the course of the past year and a half or so I've grown very dissatisfied with my corporate job and have always had an interest in real estate and real estate investing, but wasn't sure how to get started. I'm strongly considering taking the realtor exam and seeing where that takes me. I work at a bank and have several years working with affluent and high net-worth individuals. Would working with these individuals have any benefit starting out when I'm looking for an agency to work with?
