I want to wet my feet becoming a Real Estate Agent...tips?

I think a great place to start my REI career would be as a Realtor. I know a few people that invest and I also run a classifieds program at my job (my family owned radio station). Any tips on which course to take and which company would be a better start in Tampa, Fl?

@Jake Calle first I'd ask why are you becoming an agent?  If you truly want to sell homes retail then go for It!  If you are doing it to get into the investing side I'd say wait and spend that money else where.  Later if you decide you need the license go for it.  I think a lot of people go this route because they think it's the best way, but you do not need a license to be an investor.  Keep reading on here and asking questions, hope I helped :-)
