Thinking About a Career in Real Estate

If you’re thinking about changing careers or just adding an additional income source, why not think about the real estate business? It’s true that we’ve been in a slumping market over the last 2 years and making money selling real estate hasn’t actually been easy, but the good news is that the market is rebounding and there’s lots of action on the street!

Much of the activity is a result of the investor action of course since prices are lower than they’ve been in many years. Investors know, if you have cash, you can buy real estate cheap! The REO properties (those are the properties that are bank owned) are selling at historically low prices to those buyers who have the necessary cash. Since mortgages are harder to come by, banks would rather sell their REO properties to someone who is not at the mercy of the lending industry, that is, someone with cash, and will do so for a lot less!

Another reason for the increased activity in the market is the federal stimulus package which is offering first time homebuyers up to $8,000 in tax credit if they close on a home by November 30th of this year. Why not get your license and take advantage of the new and improved real estate business?!

At the State Academy of Real Estate, you’ll get a quality education, one that will prepare you for the unique market that we’re currently in. You’ll get practical knowledge as well as “testing” knowledge which will help you get a jump start in your new business. The cost of the class ($425 including books) is minimal compared with the potential income that the business affords. If you start now, you can be licensed and working well before Thanksgiving!
