General Information about a Career in Real Estate Sales
- The Real Estate Industry is a licenced industry under the Real Estate Agents Act 2008
- If you aren’t exempt from further study, then you must complete the required study with a registered provider BEFORE commencing your Sales career
- Once qualified (and to work in the industry) you need to be licenced with the REA
- Unless stated, in most cases
- You need to commit to the cost and time of the study
- You will be engaged on a Self Employed & Commission Only basis
- You only will get paid once a house is sold
- You are normally responsible for generating your own sales leads, so it does help if you have an established network.
- Real Estate Sales does require a full time (but flexible) commitment
- There are very few options to “learn on the job” without having your Real Estate Licence
- Most companies prefer you to live in the area you are working in
If you aren’t exempt from further study, REAP Recruitment can offer course options via our Training Partner, Skills Ignite for the Real Estate Salesperson qualification, New Zealand Certificate in Real Estate (Level 4).
