Am I falling for a scam?
I have recently made a call to an real estate company that is looking for people to train and sell homes for them. I did one interview and the owner was telling me that he will help me get my license and guide me on selling homes along with mentoring. he told me that for every home I sell I will get a 3% commission. Is this normal? Am I getting scammed for licensing fees?
Also he said I had to be part of the local housing association. Please any feedback would be much appreciated. Thank you for your time.

It sounds like a real estate brokerage is trying to hire you as an agent and help you pay for school.
