A Question For Real Estate Agents/Investors
Can any of you real estate agents tell me if it is honestly worth it? As someone who wants to get into real estate investing I am looking for ways to acquire more knowledge. My current employment situation has nothing to do with real estate and takes about 50 hours of my week. Becoming a real estate agent seems like a good idea because it allows my job to also focus on my interests. By working I'll be increasing my knowledge at the same time. That said, does it pay enough to do full time? If I were to quit a steady job to pursue a passion in real estate, is an agent a smart way to go about it? I'm looking to increase my seed money for my first investment as well as pay my bills. Is this feasible as new agent? Any and all input would be greatly appreciated.
