I will freely admit that I am NOT a real estate agent ... my boss is making me do this. I have been reading lots of blogs and information on Active Rain but I have a question that I would love to get an answer to ... reason, my boss an I have really different opinions on this:
Both of us agree that real estate agents need to have a hire level of education to earn a license and to maintain their license ... however,
I think to reduce the number of "hobbyist" in real estate that fees from the Association and NAR should double if not triple as well as the cost to maintain a license each year ... this would reduce those that just keep a license for an occasional deal, because it would be too expensive to do so.
He thinks that agents should have 1-2 years of mandatory apprentice practice until they can complete industry specific tasks such as Contracts, Research, Pricing, etc. his list is extensive.
What do you all think?
