Becoming a Real Estate Agent?

So I work as a inside sales specialist currently, and my colleague that sits next to me does RE Sales on the side at the job we work together (he’s working himself up to go full time with RE)

Doing RE agent has interested me before and I’m more interested in it now. Is it worth it? I’m sure the question is asked all the time...and when it comes to schooling I was considering doing the RECO course at HUMBER college? Any college better than others? Any way to get reimbursements as it’s not covered under OSAP

never chase the money, chase your passion. If you love doing real estate then go after that. If you're just more passionate about doing more transactional sales or selling tech etc. then focus on those avenues. The money will always come when you find your passion as you'll do your best work.
