I've always been interested in real estate...

<p>yeah, the housing market has always been something I've kept up to date with, and I could perhaps enjoy a future career in the real estate market. I'm a HS senior, going to Emory next year, eventually matriculating into Goizueta Business School my junior year, and am wondering what kind of salaries are common for students coming out of a BBA program. </p>

<p>I'm not too knowledgeable about the different aspects of the real estate market, so if you ask me which aspect I'd most enjoy, I'd tell you that I'm unsure. I know that salary (in the selling department) is strongly based on commission, but I'm curious about the secured salaries of young gradautes out of college. How much money I would be making, while it is a powerful external motivator, isn't everything, but it would be certainly nice to know.</p>

<p>any info would be greatly appreciated ! =]</p>

<p>I'm enrolled in a Real Estate Broker fundamentals course that is required for broker licensure in NC. I'm also taking an additional course in Real Estate math, which is not required to attain a license. I know RE requirements vary state to state, and I would advise you to look into this. As a RE broker (which comes after a provisional period), I can actually open my own company, do property management, or instead of residential RE go into commercial RE. Mind you, I'm still in high school and this is via dual enrollment through the local community college. If all goes well, I'm thinking of an MBA in Real Estate Finance and Development. But, I believe it would be advantageous on my part to get in at the ground level and learn the workings of this before attempting to start a company. Depending on your state, I would look into getting into a RE broker course or something of that nature, which would also be beneficial to you in work experience for additional avenues should you choose not to go into RE in the future.</p>
