Elise Louise asked:


I really really want to become a realtor, but I don’t know which college major would help make that dream come true. Help?
I know I need to take business, but there are different branches of that major and I don’t know which is best for becoming a real estate agent. Maybe Marketing?
So, I could major in Business Marketing and be able to be a realtor? I want to work for a well known agency and be successful.

Finance or Business Administration would work best, so you can understand what’s going on with the transactions.

Edit: Finance would be much better than Marketing for sure.

Anything. It’s not rocket science. You didn’t even used to need a degree.

If you’re going to bother getting a degree, you can probably make better money than in today’s market anyway.

definitley marketing. perhaps with a minor in communication. that way you know how to market the house, yourself, and you know how to communicate well with people.

Technically, you don’t need a college degree to become a realtor. You can take classes at many realtor’s offices. You just need a license.
