Obtaining RE License Online in IL

Posted

I am looking into different ways of obtaining a Real Estate Agent License in the state of IL (I live in Chicago).  I work a full time job as an Engineer so I would prefer something that I can do online at my own pace and schedule.  Anyone have recommendations on sites/companies who offer such?  Also, any pros or cons into going this route?

@Alexander Chavez, I've heard good things about the Real Estate Institute and I used Chicago Real Estate School.  It would depend on you as a student. I was working full time when I took my courses but I wanted more interaction so that I could have my questions answered in real time so I took the in class courses. I knew there would be things that would flip my mind and I would need some real interaction to have the concepts make sense but that's how I am as a student. You may learn better a different way.
