REI Summer internships for high school students

[Account Closed]

Hi everyone, my name is Jazmine and I'm a high school student looking to learn more about real estate by interning at a local agency. My question are: how old do you have to be to be able to intern at an agency? Do you need a real estate license? And how do you ask someone to intern for them? I don't know any real estate agents or brokers personally, so I know I need to do some "cold calling" emails, but I'm not sure what to say in those emails or even how to structure them. Is this the kind of thing you should attatch a resume to? Also, to be clear, I'm not doing this for the money, or even the connections. I honestly just want to learn and this is the boldest thing outside of my comfort zone I could think of. If anyone has any advice or other outlets to take massive action NOW, then let me know please. Thanks you in advance; I really love this community. 💙
