full time teacher/Part time agent
I am a teacher in Texas, and I plan to get my Realtor's License this summer. My goal is to work part time as a realtor,
1. to learn the biz
2. to build capital for future REI
3. eventual transition OUT of education into full time REI
My question is, how do I market myself and find a "home" a brokerage, that will take a part timer, and support my learning and growing?
Thanks

@Angelina R martinez A large percentage of agents beginning their journey are doing it part-time. Brokerages won't turn you away just because you're not doing it full-time. They have nothing to lose by accepting you as an agent. It's important to find one that has plenty of training resources available. After that they are all very similar.
