Steps for Broker License in Illinois - While Working Full Time
Hi Everyone,
I've been enjoying the forums and podcasts, though haven't come across any specifics to my situation below:
I live in the Chicagoland area and interested in getting licensed as an agent. I'm planning to continue adding buy-and-hold property as well as helping friends/family on a part-time basis. I'd like to transition into a full time agent after a year or so of part-time work.
While working full time, I'm trying to identify the best program or method for completing the 90 hour classroom portion. Does anyone have experience with the 75 hour textbook format?
Appreciate any other feedback people have on study material or the best way to complete this given a full work schedule.
Thanks
