I feel the same way as cooprider, I think now’s a really good time to get your license, which is what I’m doing. The people who are trying to make their career at real estate will eventually follow the path of natural selection.
I plan on representing myself when I buy my own home, and in the mean time wait for prices to come down. In the mean time I think I should be able to do a few loans/refi’s and maybe represent a couple buyers or sellers, for me it’s going to be some extra downpayment/savings/vacation money.
The way I see it, regardless of the market, people will always need to buy and sell. I don’t need to be out hustling for every deal out there to put food on the table, I already have a pretty good job.
[daydream] A couple deals a year would allow me to take my family to Aspen for skiing in the winter, Maui for spring break, and Disneyworld for a summer vacation…[/daydream]
