You don’t need a degree. Just read some books to get started.

Well, it can’t be anything too difficult to obtain. Seems like everybody and their dog is an agent. Just call a real estate office and ask someone there. I’m sure they could tell you.

I would get a degree in finance. This way you can learn a lot about money and most colleges have electives in the finance arena that are real estate oriented.

You just need your real estate license. You will need to take a class to get this. It is fairly easy from what I am told.

You don’t need a degree, but it wouldn’t hurt in the long run.
You need to get a real estate license and there are some mandatory classes and a written exam.
Check with your local community college or university to see when they offer the classes. You’ll need to take:

2. Real Estate Practice
3. One additional course
