Loved the flexibility and freedom real estate provides!
What I wish was different
Sometimes having my employer cut my checks was difficult, as I worked hourly but we didn't have a way to track my hours by clocking in and out, so sometimes I worked late and wouldn't get compensated for that since my pay structure was pre-determined by a CPA.
Advice
Be ready to enjoy this field of work! I started as a personal assistant just as a good professional college job, but after working there for a few years, I got my real estate license and now I am working as admin support, transaction coordinator for my team, as well as a residential real estate agent!
