Question: When would be a good time to get into New York real estate?
Answer: Yes!
You’re right, it doesn’t make sense; but then the question isn’t a very good one. Real estate in New York is like any other commodity, it is either a buyer’s market or a seller’s market; or there might even be parity. Regardless, those who have the best information and skills will know how to navigate the current market.
So when would be a good time to start? Now—Obviously. It doesn’t matter if you are getting your feet wet for the first time or if you are looking to get back in the game, obtaining the right knowledge and skills will give you the confidence to make the right moves at the right time.
Get Licensed
Getting your real estate license is a lot like getting your first driver’s license. Even if you somehow pass your written test and then do OK on the driving test, if you don’t really know what you are doing, you are just an accident waiting to happen.
You don’t want to merely get a real estate license, you will want your license to represent what you know. Brooklyn Real Estate Institute has a real estate license program that will help you get your license and arm you with the tools and know-how to succeed for yourself and your clients.
Stay Educated
Successful real estate professionals are ever learning, studying the market, and taking courses to improve themselves and their career. They may pursue a broker’s license or seek other profit centers by getting an Appraisal License or by becoming qualified as a Mortgage Loan Officer.
If commercial real estate interests you, then taking a course in Property Management can not only arm you with another marketable skill. It can give you a better understanding of the dynamics of commercial real estate. Add to that a Construction Project Management course and you will have skills that will take away your fear of putting together multi-million dollar deals and closing them.
