Real Estate in San Francisco

<p>What Colleges in San Francisco,or nearby area,offers Real Estate?</p>

<p>What degree would you choose if you wanted to make at least 200 a year?</p>

<p>UC Berkeley</p>

<p>hahahaha umm i wanna make 200,000 a year too.... one major wont prepare you for that. that is going to be your own hard work. you should major in something you feel that might relate to what you want to do. in this case, if it is real estate or business, major in business or econ or something along those lines. i guess in terms of schools id go with stanford or uc berkeley up in the bar area, but again these are not going to guarentee you a large sum of money, but it deffiantly will not hurt. and having a great degree is always helpfull.</p>

<p>no private colleges?</p>

<p>From my understanding, a specific degree in Real Estate will not denote likely success in Real Estate. I am a second generation Realtor-in the SF Bay Area. Areas of study that may prove helpful: Business, Marketing, CS, English, Teaching. I took a different route-studied Political Science and International Studies. Having a grapse on government has been invaluable, as it has turned out. I hope this helps.</p>

<p>APOL, i also studied and majored in Political Science/International Relations as an undergraduate. Not to steal the post, but i was wondering how it was usefull towards your profession of real estate. i am asking because i too am interested in real estate. thanks.</p>

<p>There are many tracks within RE. SF sales requires not much more than a big car and determination. All sorts of people do well selling homes and no degree is needed. Commercial leasing and sales typically requires a degree. Investment sales people at top firms often have MBA's. Then there is institutional lending (both bach and MBAs), institutional acquisitions (mostly MBA). Finally you have development and that too is all over. Most large development firms have both bach. and some MBAs.</p>

<p>IMO, having an understanding of PS-lends itself to effectively working in urban planning, which can play a part in RE sales--both residential-my preference- and commercial. I interface with city council and planning departments. I hope this answers your question-if not-feel free to pm</p>

<p>You don't need a degree for Real Estate, just take a few courses at your local community college.</p>
