A common misconception is that careers in real estate only involve selling houses. It is true that a substantial number of real estate industry participants devote their practice to the residential side of the business, but real estate training opens doors to an incredible variety of other career options, and presents many options to meet a wide range of people. Numerous opportunities exist for career development, progression, and promotion, and hard work is often recognized and rewarded. Transferrable skills also provide occasions to move into other fields and roles, while internationally recognized skills and qualifications provide opportunities to travel and work abroad.
