Real Estate AS degree/certificate or license?
February 15th, 2012 | by admin |I’m 24.. I haven’t done squat with my life.. But I’ve had a epiphany and realised my life is going no where and I better get on top of my life. So after looking around my local community college I think I want to pursue a Certificate of Achievement for Real Estate and then eventually transition to a AS degree. Is it worth it to go into the real estate game? or is it pretty bad since housing market is in a slump?
Here is the over view of the community college program.

How about something like this?

Is that any good or just a scam? If it’s legit what’s the difference between getting just a real estate license and a AS degree/certificate? Is the degree just more knowledgeable/professional compared to just a license?
I took the class thru long and foster then went and took the test and got my license. Having a license allows you to be an agent. I have no idea why you would need a college degree. Id take the class and get a license and if you enjoy it go for the bigger education.
Personally, I didnt like it. Wasnt making money and to expensive to keep at it. So i went inactive when my eeo insurance fees and others fees where due again.
My fiance also got his. Hes been at it for about 2 years (hes part time) and it took him a while, but things are picking up for him and he has some clients.
