Thinking of Becoming a Real Estate Agent? Plan Your Entry Carefully.
Real estate is not a get-rich-quick scheme. It’s a career that demands planning, patience, and strong financial readiness — especially if you have a family to support.
Is Part-Time or Full-Time Better For You?
✅ Part-Time Transition
Start real estate part-time while keeping your full-time job.
Focus on lead generation during your limited hours — and scale up when your income pipeline is stable.
✅ Going Full-Time
Only jump in full-time if:
- You have 9–12 months' savings
- Or a partner’s income to rely on
- Or ready leads already waiting for you
Otherwise, going in unprepared can be financially and emotionally damaging.
