Soon-to-be Real Estate Agent Question
Hello Everyone!
I'm new to Bigger Pockets. I am in the process of getting my real estate agents license through an online course. I have a crappy job right now and I've been here too long and have gone nowhere. In other words, I'm ready to get out of this place and make more money. I was wondering, since I am currently enrolled in courses to get my license, is there anyway I could get an unlicensed job at a real estate office to get my foot in the door like an assistant job or something along those lines? Everywhere I look online is showing jobs for only "licensed agents" and "experience required". I will be 22 years old next week and I don't have any real estate experience, as I am just now getting into this. I'm looking for somewhere that can help me learn as I go and once I get my license, become an agent and receive training. I understand I will probably have to do some calling around/emailing to find out more info, but my main question would be, is it a sought-after thing for agents/brokers to hire unlicensed help? How can I be apart of this and what firms would you recommend to receive the best knowledge and friendly training?
Thanks!
