Career Opportunities

The tremendous appeal of real estate is that it offers a wide range of personal challenges and opportunities. 

First, the challenge of helping people make important real estate decisions, and second, the personal independence and freedom from prescribed working hours, as well as the potential for unlimited income and achievement. Moreover, advancement in the real estate profession is limited only by an individual's determination and quest for success. 

Real Estate sales associates are compensated in direct relation to the quantity and quality of their efforts. Of equal importance is the support team that will enable an individual to reach personal career goals. The Real Estate business offers equal opportunity to everyone. People who succeed in real estate share common traits including determination, good communication skills, and a genuine interest in helping others achieve their goals.

Obtaining a Real Estate License

Real Estate sales associates are licensed by the state in which they conduct business. While each state has different licensing requirements, most stipulate completion of a state accredited "prelicensing" course and have standard age, residency, and educational requirements. 

Prelicensing courses teach real estate principles and practices involving the specifics of contracts and other real estate documents, as well as state laws regarding ownership and transfer of real estate. Applicants must take a written examination administered by the state. The Indiana Real Estate Commission then issues real estate licenses to all applicants who have passed the examination and have met other state requirements.
