Is it a bad time to become a real estate agent?

[Jean-Luc Lacosse]

With the current state of events it looks like there's going to be a large downturn in housing sales in the coming year/s. I currently work admin for a good brokerage and have been offered to become one of their agents if I get my license. This area is for luxury 2nd home sales primarily. Would it really be a good idea to invest my time and lots of money into this field when there's a downturn happening?

Thanks!
