Does anyone know how to become an agent or has any adive about the process?
If I wanted to become a nurse then i would go into nursing but I don’t so your answer will not help but thanks for the suggestion. I am not sure this is what I want i am just looking for more information. Right now I think its a good time to take classes and learn about it since it is slow.
Heather, there are several ways in which you can get your real estate license. The State of Illinois gov’t website can direct you to it’s real estate division which should list licensed instructors and/or places where you can take courses. Check your local colleges, many of them offer real estate courses. In our area, it is often advertised when classes will start(there are many people who are licensed instructors who hold classes in places other than college campuses. I took my course at the local high school). You might even contact the Illinois Association of Realtors. The market is pretty yucky right now, but there sure are a lot of foreclosures being listed right now! To begin, you will have to pay for class and to take the state test. On the upside, these expenses are tax deductable, as would be your mileage. Best of luck!

Contact all the real estate offices in the phone book. See if they are looking for anyone. If they aren’t they could could still tell you when classes are being held to aquire the license.
