I’m a RN with 12y of experience and I’m seriously contemplating getting my real estate licensing. I believe I can be successful at it but I’m scared to try it. After all the work and time put into nursing, it feels wasteful to just pack and leave the profession. Yet, I feel that I’m wasting precious time going back and forth in my mind about what I should do next. Any advice? I have zero experience in real estate but I’m willing to learn and grow. Anyone willing to be a mentor? Thank you!

There’s more realtors than listings. Being successful in real estate is largely around leveraging your network and grinding out the first 1 to 3 years to get some wins under your belt and learn the business. Most agents won’t sell a single listing in their first year. You have to be in it for the long run to be successful.

You can get a RE license and work part time in RE and keep you RN job for now. Get your license first. Be a part time RE agent first. I agree with PM1. It will take a few year to build your business, network, and brand.

Lender shopping before I close out on my first home. Is 3.5% a good rate for putting 20% down on a home? How can I go about having my lender match other lenders? For context, the home I’m building in Texas has a lender that will cover $5k in closing costs if I go with them, and that’s the rate they’re giving me. I realize the rates are going back up and just wanted any advice on if it’s best to lock that in the next week or keep shopping as my closing is May 14. Thanks in advance!

Hey all I have an opportunity to buy a vacation home as a private sale from my parents (they are buying a new house in that area and need to sell the old one), it is waterfront property in NH 10 minutes from Mt Sunappee. I am concerned that making this purchase may make me a little cash poor in the short term, but still manageable. Would it make more sense to rent out the property through a rental company that included insurance and cleaning or to put it on airbnb?
