#RealEstateAgent
I’m a junior in high school who is just now considering real estate as an option for the first time. Your videos explain the ins and outs in a detailed but easy to understand way, and I really appreciate it! Thank you so much 💙
Regarding studying, you can find online sites where it's actual flashcards... I found them for the California state exam... I prepped for one week, did nearly 1,500 flashcards. Also, received advice from a guy who has taught in person with flashcards and tips. One great piece of advice: If there are questions you can't answer in the moment, leave them. When you are almost done, except for those questions you set aside, get up, go to the restroom and then come back. It works. I was able to bang out answers quickly. I don't know why it works, but it does !! Good Luck...
Im 17 years old and just Started my online courses for real estate and I inspire to be like you.❤️
how long is it going to take for you to get your license?
@@jrayne000 Their application for licensure will be denied until they become 18years old. Your Certificate of Completion is good for 2 years!
I thought you had to be at least 18 to start education/course for getting a real estate license?🤔 Good luck!! I'm 16 and I'm thinking to become a real estate agent too!
Real estate is hot everywhere - put 2 and 2 together and you'll know if it's a good industry to go into.
@@dashataylor6348you can study and do a course but to take the exam you have to be 18!
I think the door knocking is wrong and continually sending people Emails looks desperate and it turns people off. The best form of advertising is word of mouth. If you do a good job and let your clients know you care about them and not just your commision.
I totally agree!
I am enrolling in a class soon in preparation for the Colorado realtor Exam. I just found you today. Your content is exactly the info I’ve been looking for. Thank you so much.
The best investment one can do right now is investing on real estate though stocks are good but ever since I swapped to real estate, I've seen so much difference.
I have been making a lot profit through real estate which has been the main source of my income.
Sounds great! please I will appreciate your assistance on how to go about it, who's your coach and how good is your coach?
I’m interested I want to move to real estate investment can you help me ?.
STEPHINE KOPP MEEKS is who i work with look her
Thanks for recommending i find her and left her message online
Best is to study and get a real estate agent license then you don't have to hire a agent to buy and sell your house. Don't let middle man get your money.
Most ppl don’t have as much free time as you and are willing to pay for the service…
You guys do realize that people hire agents because they are not willing to put the time into and effort into going through the stress of the buying and selling process. It’s just like any other service. You pay money for going to a restaurant because you don’t want to cook. You pay a lawyer because you don’t want to represent yourself in court. You can save money doing stuff on your own of course, but there’s a luxury to have people do stuff for you. Let real estate agents earn their living like everyone else 😂
Yes. And pass the bar exam and become a lawyer too to save money on legal fees and go to medical school and get your PHD so you never have to pay medical fees 😂
@@Top-notch_treasures LOOOOOOOL
Negative energy
Hi! I am debating on whether I would like to start going into real estate lately with the market we are in right now. I am trying to see if it’s worth going into
Me too while I'm currently taking the class but I like the fact of license reciprocity transfer for different states
I'm a senior who is studying medicine but I currently want to try out real estate. Ion think that medicine js gonna cut it 😅Your videos seem helpful and I do hope that I become an agent. Wish me luck❤
Good tips! Lead generation is the most difficult part of the job. Unless you are coming into the industry with people who want to buy and sell with you, then it will be difficult to grow. But never give up!
Use social media. You’ll get tons of leads. It does cost money to get your ads out there in the area.
I come from wholesaling real estate so I’m use to cold calling. Mainly absentee owners or motivated sellers (preforeclosures, tax defaults,probates/inherited property and expires). I’m a part time agent now and have been cold calling for two months (2 hours per day) and got my first listing last week. I didnt really have to sell, the guy was motivated because he inherited the property and didn’t want to be bothered with it anymore. I do want to break into the social media, new construction house tours and RUclips space by spring next year. But in the meantime I will keep cold calling because it works for me and fits my lifestyle as a housewife and homeschooling my kids in the morning.
Where do you recommend to your post licensing course ?
How long does it usually take to see your first check as a realtor? I want to make a career change in my 30s from a “9-5” to become a realtor and I’m wondering how many months of expenses I should have saved up before I quit my job and change careers.
3 to 6 months of all your basic expenses like car insurance phone bill mortgage/rent something like that all your basic needs and expenses
I would suggest becoming a notary signing agent. You’ll always have something to fall back on.
@@byefelicia8632 is that connected to a real estate agent
@@byefelicia8632I would have loved to do that too but my state only allows lawyers to do that😭
I also used Prep Agent! I love them!
What’s this? How’d you get into this?
I heard it was a choice to go to college for real estate, so if anybody reading this it doesn’t matter if you go to college or not to pursue real estate full time. All you have to is to make sure you have your GED or your high school diploma to go to real estate school and you have to pass your exam they will give you two to three try’s and if you didn’t pass them you have to take the course again. After that you will have your license and you just have to have it for a few years until you get to take the state exam to be a broker, but in the meantime you can get hired under a broker in any of the company you choose.
How long before you had success in sales? How to reach buyers or sellers? Thanks.
Now I love how you just kept it real . I’m nervous starting out in real estate being 40 something after I finish college . I just want my associates degree in business administration then real estate licenses . The degree is just for more job options so I’m never limited to just one thing .
To be honest, at least for me, getting started is the hardest part. passing the test is not easy and takes some real dedications to pass.
Which course package did you do from colibris ?
In Texas you have to take 6 classes and the exams can be difficult if you aren't good at memorization lol
Social media is huge FACTOR for this time of generation, advertise as much you can!! Now in days being a real estate should be easy with all this technology and AI
I could watch her videos all day 💐
Great info thank you ! I currently have my own marketing business mainly dealing with dental offices … I ve done well and now have plenty of spare time and have been looking to becoming a realtor but still have my marketing business to help pay my bills while I am learning to become a successful realtor.
Hi guys, I’m trying to get into real-estate but am not sure which courses to take online. Do any of you have any recommendations?
You have an awesome way of presenting.
I retired from the military and have an engineering background, but I have decided to change a career field from engineering into real estate industries due to being an engineer is no longer suitable for me. The good thing about being retired in the military is that I have a fall back financially (retirement income) just incase real estate will be difficult due to lack of experience and knowledge--I can be risky or work slowly up.
I'm actually curious what are some jobs I can do without a license/ while getting my license
notary/Loan signing agent
I worked for a bank mortgage company. I did loan orientation. Or loan processing
Love your videos. Im currently half way though the Real estate course and live in beautiful Hawaii. Keep the content coming. As I am just starting out I have all kinds of questions concerning things like transaction coordinators and how difficult contracts are, scripts, prospecting with developers, if hiring a social media consultant to create all of my professional websites and platforms is worth it, taxes and more! haha... I'm sure a lot will be answered as I progress but love to check out your videos for helpful information. Mahalo from Hawaii!
I appreciate this video ! Just found you today and SUBSCRIBED! Working on being a RE Agent in Ga ❤
Great insights! Wish I had known these truths before starting my real estate journey. Thanks for keeping it real and sharing your experiences! 👍
4:00, 8:31, 11:40, 12:50, 17:39
Thanks for the honest insights!
I agree 100% on the college point. Some of my best clients were college friends and referrals from them.
If I work for a company as an agent - do they offer hourly pay?
I've heard some offer a safety net. Basically monthly pay until you sell your house. Once you sell a house and make money off that you'll never make monthly pay again. If you go a month and don't sell a house you won't get monthly pay
Your video has some good information for sure. However, I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss the boutique brokerage. The right boutique brokerage can give you much more access to mentoring and education without having to give up even more of your commission to join a team. I've been in this business for more than 20 years, and only once did I hang my license with a large brokerage. The culture was wrong for me, as I enjoy being part of a supportive "family" like a small brokerage.
In all that time, I don't think I ever lost a listing opportunity because I was not affiliated with a big brokerage. I am not saying that a smaller brokerage is right for everyone, but they do have their place, and you can absolutely build a very successful career with the "little guy".
The part where she said stick with them until they are convinced to make a move is absolutely correct 💯
I know a guy that I've known for over five years now and he had this 1 plot of land he hadn't been able to get a buyer on for almost 10 years now and just last month, we sold it to a female pharmacist and she paid in full and I got my commission 🎉 It may be long but someday, You'll make a sale or commission 🎉
love this video. great questions, great answers, many of them if not all of them I have asked myself. great content. Thank you.
Great video!
Same with me I watched myprepagent the entire morning before my test and I passed the first time!!!
Great video! Very well said ❤
Will there be times where you can’t close every deal?
Thank you for the video.
Hello mam Do you have any work for Video Editing ???
Most people only see or think about the commission and not the upfront cost / expenses that accumulate until you actually get the home sold which can take months BEFORE you get paid. Also that you ACTUALLY have to care about people as your helping them through this BIG Life decision.
Good info! Thank you
This is really helpful for my future career cause I want to be a real estate agent
I'm sure being attractive helps.
Obviously Real estate exam has been a pain in my ass, but that won't bother me any longer I have gotten my license already thanks to you Mr Dylan God bless you more cuz you made it possible for me
Yes you're correct but remember heaven helps those who help themselves, try if you can't study then get yourself a good help
I failed 3times,I lost money to reviews and scams that never helped but the major thing is that I’ve never lost hope
Everyone has their own way,Mr Dylan worked for me and studying didn't
I met him on tele gram
@ Mr_Dylan01
The main advantage in the brokerage u don't come under tax system
Hi, I'm 55 years and would love to be in this business
Being a real estate agent is not tailored for all or everybody’s job would be in real estate and earning millions of bucks! Been there, done that not for me. Good luck to all aspiring to become one, there are fees and realtor dues that you need to pay monthly, quarterly and yearly before you even earn your first check!
How long did you do it for and what do you do now? Thank you.
Too late 😂 I'm a real estate agent now
WHERE DID YOU GET THAT BELT FROM?
Weird
"Building wealth is like climbing a mountain; investing is the steady ascent, retirement is the summit."
Great analogy! Climbing toward retirement takes effort, but the financial freedom at the top is worth it.
Great insight! I'd love to meet a financial adviser who can help me climb the financial ladder effectively.
Great point, With my adviser’s help, I’ve climbed the financial ladder, making informed decisions that support my retirement goals.
My CFA NICOLE ANASTASIA PLUMLEE a renowned figure in her line of work. I recommend researching her credentials further.
Thank you for this amazing tip. I just looked the name up and wrote her.
I'm thinking of getting into this. But i don't feel confident with my English accent. Thats what holding me back.
Most clients value someone who can accomplish tasks efficiently to their best interests, ensure a smooth process, provide clear guidance, and offer emotional support, rather than focusing on accents. Don’t let this hold you back from helping others and learning about one of the biggest economic assets in the world!
An English accent is an asset in the US!
31, 3DUIs, arrested 7 times, no felonies luckily, no college degree. What's your thought go for it or no?

What is the favorite TV show you’re referring to ?
Maybe modern family

I’m 27 years old and I just started my online courses for real estate and I inspire to be like you or way better than you any advice
True true true. Top producer here and it does take years at times to land a listing with some but they do come, if you're who they think of, so stay present.😊 Borderline harassment energy. ❤
You mean to call buyers/sellers regularly?
you look and talk very lovely. kudos to your video.
Does fitness and appearance matther?
Be prepared to waste a lot of your money and get nothing in return
Why do you say so?
100% true!!!
Realtors = used car salespeople. 😂
You sound like a renter who’s never bought a house.
@@Top-notch_treasures owned and sold a few. 😂 and realtors are no longer needed in today’s housing market. I’ve fired 7 in the past three years! Not one listing was found by them because buyers use Zillow or Redfin. The ONLY thing realtors did was punch keys on a lock box and tell me to forgo inspections. 😂 And now my rent is cheaper than a mortgage, foreclosures have increased, and prices are coming down. So, tell me again how valuable realtors are.
Your comment says it all. Peace out . I hope your landlord never decides to sell your rented apt and kick you out on the streets. 😂😂😂
@@RoyalRockRealty not going to keep renting because I am looking to buy. So, your comment means nothing. However, when it’s cheaper to rent than buy, what do you suggest people to do? My only point was that realtors are just as bad as used car salesmen, which most are. You pursue becoming a realtor in an economy where people can’t afford to buy, with your commission based salary.
How old are you Chloe? Thanks
She doesnt anwer questions i see that
you should be a model. so Beautiful.
98% of realtors are rebranded used car salespeople period!!!!!
Been there suffered that
It’s a sales business after all
Most people need a realtor to purchase/sell/find homes…
I hate you for saying the word popular. Stop saying the word popular
Stfu no one cares about you
I’d bet u were never part of the popular crowd, neither was I, but don’t let that trauma define your life.
@ you don’t know me. You’re beyond stu*pid to think you know me when you don’t. You don’t know me at all this also includes the positive things in my life. Stu*pidddd
