I'm shocked Realator's even exist today. That shock is 10 fold for what they financially make too. I imagine a few percent of the cheerleaders/pretty boys make a lions share though?

Eight courses, and a easy test, and you are set to go. Two years experience under a Broker (CA law) was passed a few years. (The experience bill was heavily lobbied by Realator's lobby, and sadily--Gov. Brown signed it. During the hearing 1 example of inexperience was noted as the reason for the change in requirements. A four year degree was all that was required before Realtor's got their mitts on a bill.

The result has been less competition among brokers, while their job has gotten easier. Easier in terms of digital hone showings, and all their other tech being thrown at them.

The biggest schmoozer, or cheerleader, are usually the only one's making a very comfortable living?

I never thought I would say this, but I'm waiting for the profession to be gone.

It's just an added expense to overpriced homes. 6% on a 2 million house is crazy, and I'm even a fan of paying full commissions.

A four year degree for a flipping estate agent WTF.

You know what's even easier than becoming a real estate agent? Becoming a programmer. No training or certification at all!
