 Talk to a few Realtors in your area to get the REAL SCOOP on your market...what it feels like IN YOUR market. 

Getting into RE in some markets is suicide.  Other markets are doing much better.

Then, you have to pick a school to get educated & then get your license.

Be leary of any Broker (or Agent) that latches too tightly onto you because they are most likely going to recruit you into their office.

Thing is...after you get there they won't be much help....but recruiting you is $$ in their pocket so they seem real attentive at first.  I gotta run for the moment.

But the 2 pieces of advice I gace you is the first things you need to do.

Ask more questions.  I'll be back.  :-)  (got meetings)  :-(
