			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.condotron.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/agent-2.jpg"><img src="http://www.condotron.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/agent-2.jpg" alt="agent 2" title="agent 2" width="272" height="272" class="alignright size-full wp-image-94" /></a>One thing that will help you to decide if you do want to become an agent is by talking to other real estate agents.  Knowledge is power in this industry, and learning about firsthand experiences can be enormously helpful.</p>
<p>You see, you can make good money when you work in real estate.  However, it is not going to happen right away.  As a new agent, you are going to have to pay your dues and make your bones, unless you are lucky enough to start out selling million dollar properties, which is not highly likely.</p>
<p>Thus it is important to be realistic.  If your whole idea of being a real estate agent comes from one of those reality shows on Bravo, you need a big reality check.</p>
<p>As with any other endeavor, it takes hard work, determination, and patience to become successful in this industry.  We will outline just how to go out it next week.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.condotron.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/agent-1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-91" title="agent 1" src="http://www.condotron.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/agent-1-300x198.jpg" alt="agent 1" width="219" height="144" /></a>A lot of people love the <em>idea</em> of becoming a real estate agent, but they are not at all sure about what this involves.  It seems fun &#8212; and it can be, as well as very rewarding.  However, it is vital to remember that this is a job in an industry that is often topsy turvy at best.  It takes a lot of hard work and dedication, and it requires more than just hours spent in the classroom.</p>
<p>Education is key, of course.  Not only do you need to educate yourself when studying to be an agent, but you also need to do plenty of research before taking the first step.  Contrary to what you may have heard, you will not make a lot of money while doing hardly any work if you become a real estate agent.</p>
<p>You can be successful, though, if you are willing to dedicate yourself &#8212; as you will see.</p>
