The best routes to take are to research the process of starting a business as well as the industry you're interested in.
I recommend checking out the SBA, Entrepreneur, The Start Up Journal & Nolo. All 4 are great informational resources for the new/small business owner. I posted links for you in the source box.
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:
* Your First Year in Real Estate: Making the Transition from Total Novice to Successful Professional by Dirk Zeller
* 21 Things I Wish My Broker Had Told Me: Practical Advice for New Real Estate Professionals by Frank Cook
* Complete Idiot's Guide to Success as a Real Estate Agent by Marilyn Sullivan
* Real Estate License Exams For Dummies by John A. PhD, DREI Yoegel
There are plenty of free informational resources out there. Check the source box for links to articles.
Hope that helps! I wish you much success & happiness in all your ventures!
