how long would it take to be a realtor as a very beginner?

Question

hello, it's brian who is very interested in the license called realtor.

and i got a few questions before i get started.

please, kindly answer my questions. i would appreciate it.

first, how long would it take to get the license as a very beginner?

i know it's totally up to a person who is taking it, but can you give me

an average that it usually takes??

second, how many subjects do i need to cover??

third, how is the license test composited? (eg, # of subject, multiple or short answer etc.)

it could be different state by state, so if you can give an example with NY state,

i'll be too happy :)

fourth, is the license transferable?? let's say i have the NY's license. then, if i move to

DC then, do i need to go over all the steps agian? or it's just trasferable between states?

fifth, how much would it cost me if i study with your web-prep? from the beg. to the end.

well,, it seems like i asked all my questions.

please, get back to me with the answers. thanks.

have a great day :)

Answer 1

well, each state requires you take a different real estate exam and you also have to take the exam over once it expires. It is basically comprised of all multiple choice. You are also required to take classes. You can take longer _8 hours_ classes over a short period of time and get it done with quickly. IF youre motivated and study hard hard hard (people rarely pass their first real estate exam) then it might take you a month or longer. I would say a couple months. but in order to make money, you have to have a high clientell and KNOW THE BUSINESS

Answer 2

The best routes to take are to research the process of starting a business as well as the industry you're interested in.

Associations may be a good avenue to explore as well. These organizations will address many of the thoughts, questions and concerns you'll inevitably have as well as many you haven't anticipated yet. See the source box for some relevant links.

Research, research, research – this cannot be stressed enough. Read as much as you can about the industry. Here are some book titles that are relevant:

2.you cover law and ethics, building structure and home styles, math, closing, contracts....
