Pros and cons to being a real estate agent. Considering this for 2nd career. Eighteen years in insurance sales and management.
Several career profiles indicate real estate agent. Always heard the business is feast or famine. Any advice.

if you are looking for a real estate company to work for then you are just making somone else rich off your time and effort. if you have experiance with real estate but not the money to buy or sell your self then i think you should work for a company and save a lot of money. when you have ennough then start your own business. thats how you get to where you dont depend on a paycheck or benefits.

My firm does offer benefits to agents, but at their own and full cost. Bear in mind that real estate agents work fully on commssion, and have no salary of any sort. We have put together a health benefits package simply to assist agents in getting a lower cost healthcare program. However, we pay none of it. Each agent is required to pay the full cost of any offered benefit.

You have lots of residuals now to live on and you can try real estate. You might look for a builder-realtor to start with and only sell their product. You don’t need a license for that . By the time it is all built and sold you will know the business very well and lots of sales people too. The one thing realty sales people can do well is talk.

You should check out Home Finder Forum. Real estate agents can tell you personally abou t thier experiences. Just go to the realtor section in the forum and post your questions.
