Is really worth it to get my real estate license?

[Luis Puente]

Hi everyone! I'm new to this and have been considering getting my real estate agent license for a couple of months. My main goal is to invest in real estate in the future, but I want to understand how everything works first. Many people have recommended starting as a real estate agent and then moving forward from there.

I have a few questions: How has your experience been? Is it really difficult to start? How long does it usually take to earn your first commission? Is the new percentage of commission worth it? I'm currently working full-time and making $60,000 a year. Is the market too saturated for new agents? I really appreciate your honest opinion, Thank you.
