Real estate training. Career in miel. Who chooses the profession of a realtor for life?

What education is needed for a realtor, where to undergo training, what knowledge to obtain in order to become a successful specialist.

Before you start working as a real estate agent, you will encounter different opinions about the level of knowledge of real estate agents:

someone will tell you that special education is not needed;
others that real estate agencies will teach you everything you need;
thirdly, those who study a lot about marketing, networking and sales become successful specialists in the real estate market.

Oddly enough, everyone will be right in their own way... Let's figure it out, I will describe exactly what you will encounter!

What education do realtors need?

A realtor does not have any specialized education as such. Those. It is impossible to find an institute in the post-Soviet space, as well as in many foreign countries, where you would be given a diploma in the specialty “Realtor”.

At the same time, based on the specifics of the professional activity of a real estate agent, it cannot be said that he can do without education at all.

So what kind of education is needed to work as a realtor, we will answer based on the knowledge and skills that a real estate specialist uses every day in his work:

looking for new clients;
business negotiations, correspondence, document flow for the purchase and sale of real estate;
formation of a package of documents for the transaction, assessment of the cost of housing, drawing up and concluding contracts;
analysis and forecasts on the local real estate market;
maintaining a client base. development of recommendations and reviews;
daily planning, etc.

Based on this data, a realtor must know the basics of marketing, networking, civil, land, tax law, economic knowledge, the basics of doing business and selling services (B&B), be able to communicate with clients and convince them.

As a result, we come to the conclusion that the education or, more precisely, the specialties that are needed to become a real estate realtor are as follows:

jurisprudence;
marketing;
economy;
psychology;
business basics.

And this is only a small and main part. By receiving a diploma in the above areas, you will learn only the theoretical side, this is one nuance, the second is specialization. for example, in jurisprudence you will only need a civil direction, and not a criminal or administrative one.

But it is not enough to be an expert in your specialty; you must constantly monitor the emergence of new ways of working, changes in legislation, and analyze the market. This is a continuous process and all this must be done simultaneously with work in the “fields”.

Do you need a higher education to work as a realtor?
From the point of view formalities, there is no need to obtain a bachelor's or specialist's degree to work as a realtor. However, many real estate agencies are more willing to hire candidates with higher education, because... There is a stereotype about more educated university graduates.

Conducting a survey among my friends and colleagues, I came to the conclusion that graduates with a higher education diploma get a head start compared to candidates who do not have this education for the following reasons:

literacy in writing and speech;
well-read and broad-minded;
ability to work with large amounts of information;
ability to analyze information and make decisions based on analysis;
ability to search and find solutions from various situations;
ability to persevere and self-development;
stress resistance, etc.

From all of the above, I don’t find anything that everyone can’t learn in the 5 years of their life that are spent studying at a university. Moreover, the agency cannot verify whether or not a candidate realtor has a higher education diploma.

Educational courses, trainings and seminars for realtors

Training, as I already wrote, is often provided by real estate agencies (paid or free). Trainings and webinars for realtors can be completed and listened to online. Therefore, for those who want to study, the current moment is simply a treasure trove of opportunities. The real estate agency, in turn, will provide the opportunity to apply knowledge in practice.

What are the advantages of the courses:

efficient, inexpensive, remote;
practical knowledge according to the principle “learn - apply!”, i.e. After listening to the course, you can apply the acquired knowledge in practice on the same day and begin to develop useful skills in the real estate business;
actual information. Universities, where teachers often worked in the “fields” 20 years ago, provide the same outdated information. During training and webinars, you just need to choose the right speaker who is really competent in what he teaches and you will receive capacious, valuable and actionable information.

Why can’t we limit ourselves to the education that a real estate agency provides to newbie realtors? There are a number of reasons:

A realtor-teacher, often an ordinary agent of a company, who has established himself as a professional specialist and is paid extra for conducting classes with beginners. However, he will not raise competitors in the market in which he works, so you most likely will not get any really working “chips” from him;
Often, realtors, in order to grow steadily professionally and financially, choose their specialization, for example, they work only with new buildings or secondary housing, or with luxury real estate. And if you receive knowledge only from this realtor-curator, you will only be able to work in his specialization.

In this regard, self-training for a realtor is our everything! There are many options for spending money, but one win-win option is investing in self-education, in a correctly chosen training course that will pay for itself 10-20-100 times.

Where to study to be a realtor

Anyone who has at least once encountered the purchase or exchange of real estate knows that a more difficult and nerve-wracking task practically does not exist. Real estate transactions always require large emotional, time and financial costs, most of which, fortunately, can be transferred to the shoulders of professionals - representatives of the realtor profession.

However, sometimes the intervention of realtors results in even bigger problems. And all because in this profession there are a large number of random people who came into it either by the opportunity to earn big earnings or by the apparent simplicity of the work. And really, what could be so difficult about “matching” a buyer with a real estate seller? But everything is not so simple, since in order for the parties to the transaction to sign a purchase and sale or rental agreement, and for the realtor to receive his commission, the specialist has to run a lot. Well, so that you understand what we mean, we suggest you familiarize yourself with all the features of this profession.

Who is a realtor?

– a specialist, an individual or a representative of a real estate company, providing intermediary services in real estate transactions: purchase/sale, entry/exit from residential to non-residential stock (and vice versa) and rental of both residential and commercial real estate (buildings, structures, land plots, etc.).

The name of the profession comes from the English realtor (real estate agent), which in turn comes from the phrase real estate (real estate). For our country, this profession is relatively young. Why relatively? Because officially it appeared only at the end of the 20th century, but unofficially much earlier. In any case, already in 1907 a special newspaper “Collection of Demand and Offers” was published in Russia, which collected all the information about real estate. In Soviet times, the prototype of modern real estate companies was the Bureau of Housing Exchange, which provided intermediary services for the exchange, delivery and rental of housing.

Interesting fact: in the USA, where the history of the profession goes back more than 80 years, only a member of the National Association of Realtors or its affiliated organizations has the right to be called a realtor. Moreover, the term itself " realtor" is an officially registered trademark and is capitalized in all dictionaries as a proper noun.

Note that the large volumes of real estate transactions observed today have led to the fact that the profession is divided into several narrow specializations: specialists who deal only with private real estate, agents specializing in commercial real estate, and realtors who work only with land plots. But regardless of specialization, professional responsibilities of realtors practically do not differ from each other, and include:

search for real estate and clients;
showing real estate to potential buyers/tenants;
registration and support of transactions (including the collection of all documents necessary for the transaction, as well as registration of real estate with justice by proxy from the client);
promotion and advertising of real estate;
consulting clients within their competence on all issues related to the transaction.

What personal qualities should a realtor have?

The main thing in work as a realtor not so much to find a suitable option (although this is also important), but to convince the client that the proposed property is the best. Therefore, in this profession it is impossible to imagine a person who does not have communication skills, personal charm and the ability to persuade. In addition, such personal qualities as:

Among the professional knowledge necessary for a realtor to perform his work efficiently (in addition to the real estate market), special attention is paid to: economics, law, sociology, psychology, architecture, engineering and construction, sanitary and hygienic standards for real estate properties.

Advantages of being a realtor

The most important thing advantage of being a realtor, of course, is its availability. Absolutely anyone who combines the desire to achieve professional success and the ability to self-improvement can become a real estate specialist. In this case, neither the age, nor gender, nor the social status of the applicant for this position matters.

This profession also opens up great prospects for those who dream of owning their own business. With minimal capital investment, you can provide real estate services both privately and by registering a real estate company. The truth is that it will be possible to achieve success only if you work hard and persistently, giving your all to the profession.

An undoubted advantage is also:

flexible work schedule;
communication with a large number of people;
visible result of work, expressed in the amount of income.

Well, if we mentioned income, then it would not be out of place to say that the profession of a realtor is considered one of the most promising in this regard. The amount of reward for intermediary services in some cases reaches several thousand dollars from one transaction. The average monthly income of the average realtor (let us emphasize, a real specialist, not an amateur) in Russia today starts from 50 thousand rubles.

Disadvantages of being a realtor

The profession of a realtor can be safely attributed to those specialties about which people say, “The legs feed the wolf.” From here the main disadvantages of being a realtor.

Firstly, irregular work hours. Realtors have to “adapt” to the client, and meet with him mainly only when it is convenient for the client. And this can be early in the morning, late in the evening, on weekends, and on holidays.
Secondly, the dependence of income on the results of work. Since a realtor does not receive a salary as such, and his income represents only interest from each transaction, the amount a specialist “runs” is how much he will earn. This is why you will never find a good realtor in the office idly drinking coffee. As a rule, real professionals either work with the real estate database, or meet with clients, or show the property.

It must also be said that the public’s attitude towards realtors is more negative than positive. Many have heard about the so-called “black realtors”, communication with whom leads, at a minimum, to the loss of real estate, and in some cases, to the loss of life. Therefore, professional realtors have to make enormous efforts to earn the trust of their clients and “whiten” their profession in the eyes of the public.

During a crisis, people unfortunately lose their jobs and decide to start working, mistakenly believing that it is an easy profession. What if there is a property, you can quickly find a buyer, bring all parties to the notary and sign a purchase and sale agreement. What other technologies are you talking about? Funny. Many people share the same opinion: why contact, we can handle it ourselves.

This euphoria of lightness and simplicity quickly passes after the first attempt. deal carry out independently, both with and with their clients. However, of course, there is a completely opposite opinion, I respect it, there are positive experiences in conducting the first transactions excellently". and citizens who are confident in their success, I ask you not to read this article, but to spend your time more useful for them.

Unfortunately, at the first steps of real estate transactions questions, problems, conflicts arise that require immediate consultation with competent real estate specialists or lawyers.

Apartments are not always sold directly, then chains of two or more apartments are formed, but this is a topic for future articles, see you on the pages of my website.

Professional education

Where can I find out about what being a realtor entails? Where to start education in this field? It should be noted that there are no higher educational institutions that train such personnel. In its pure form, this profession is not represented in our country in any institute or university. At the same time, of course, a higher education is something that any real realtor should have. Where to begin? There are several options:

Property management. This area is more technical and relates to renting or buying and selling very indirectly.
Law faculties. Deep knowledge in the field of civil law will help a real estate agent carry out any, even the most controversial and complex transaction within the framework of the law.

Agent portrait: personal qualities

What should a beginning realtor look like? Where to start working on yourself to master such a profession? It should be noted that real estate professionals are people of a special kind; it is almost impossible to artificially cultivate the necessary personal qualities in oneself. So, a realtor must have:

Love of life and cheerfulness. Remember, you will have to work a lot, travel often, and it may become routine.
Physical strength and good health. Numerous shows and travel are impossible due to frequent illnesses.
Resistant to stress. By the way, any work with people implies the need to have this quality.

About other people's mistakes

Where to start for a new real estate agent? In addition to general recommendations on what you should know and do, you should also consider the most common mistakes. This information will help prevent them in the future.

Do not impose your services on everyone who wants to listen to you; it is likely that there is no need for them, and the person just wants to communicate; unnecessary conversations will only take up your working time.
Don’t take failure too harshly; remember that refusal or failure of a deal happens quite often, and in most cases it is not the specialist’s fault. Take this as a valuable experience and don’t despair, the negative attitude may carry over to future meetings.
Lack of sales skills and lack of understanding of the need for these skills. Professional courses or communication with experts in their field will help any beginner fill this gap.
Lack of desire for development. Remember that to achieve high results, each person must develop and try to overcome his own ceiling, do not consider yourself smarter than everyone else.
Obtaining exclusively theoretical knowledge. Please note that working in real estate involves, first of all, live communication with people, which is why to achieve what you want, it is not enough to have an extensive theoretical base. It is extremely important to be able to use existing knowledge in practice and adapt it to a specific situation.
Lack of understanding of the importance of developments. A work-in-progress, or script, is an approximate script for conducting a conversation, roughly speaking, a template. Having thought through several standard templates, it will be easier for you to navigate, making only minor changes as you communicate with the client.

If you can anticipate all these mistakes, you will turn out to be an excellent specialist.

About financial understanding

When answering the question of where to start for a novice realtor, it is necessary to note the fact that a large number of young people consider such a profession to be quite easy and bring in easy money. Please note that this is absolutely not true. Real estate mediation is hard and painstaking work, requiring endurance and complete dedication. Your earnings will be piecework, it will depend entirely on the deals concluded, that is, on the efforts you put in. If you are unable to work and lack knowledge, such work is the easiest path to bankruptcy.

Where should a new realtor turn? Where to start looking for a job? The ideal first place of work is a large company with a solid staff; don’t be afraid to get lost among other employees; your task is to get the necessary education and develop your first base of possible clients. Large firms often provide training that will be useful to you. In addition, large concerns also employ professional legal teams who are ready to provide support to each employee.

Basics of drafting legal documents and contracts (from the simplest to the more complex).

Immediate start of activity

What does the direct work of a realtor look like? Where to start developing a base? There are plenty of options. In a large company, ready-made contacts are issued to an old-timer or a newcomer. But what about those who want to work only for themselves from the very beginning? If you don’t have professional connections, you can search through shopping databases or get information from advertisements on the Internet, newspapers, magazines, or even at bus stops.

In addition, it would be a good idea to prepare your own business cards with contact information and distribute them among your friends.

Realtor is a person who provides intermediary legal services for the purchase and sale of property. These people make sure that the laws are followed when preparing documents, bring sellers with buyers, landlords with tenants, and are witnesses to the transaction.

An agent needs to thoroughly know the entire legislative framework and, in addition, there is much more that is required of a broker. Before becoming a specialist, the first thing you need to do is study in detail the rights, as well as the existing responsibilities of a realtor.

Have access to the necessary real estate documents that are required

Ensure that his client's rights are not violated
Provide your services without restrictions to any consumers
Provide your client with all the information about the transaction.
Provide the service consumer with the necessary information

Qualities required for a realtor

A broker must have a lot of knowledge and qualities necessary for the profession: he must be responsible, active, and have high performance. All knowledge must be “fresh”; he must constantly improve it in the field of dynamics and price formation in the real estate market, and thoroughly know the legislative framework for the alienation of real estate.

After some time, a successful and purposeful agent will be able to provide real estate registration services without much difficulty, and the experience gained while working as a broker will bring tangible results. What does it take to become a realtor? In addition to the described knowledge, he needs the following qualities:

Communication skills. This is one of the main qualities, without which working with real estate is impossible. In his field of activity, a realtor needs to communicate with different people, resolve issues with representatives of utility services, passport office employees, real estate buyers, tenants and landlords. A realtor must also be a psychologist; in difficult situations, he will have to express words of support to the client, suggest what to do in a given situation when choosing or selling a home.
Punctuality and organization. Being late for a meeting may interfere with the transaction.
Flexibility and ability to achieve goals. Sometimes, in order to find a compromise in negotiations between two parties, a real estate agent will have to listen to the arguments of both sides, he must make the right decision and achieve the main goal - to conclude a deal.
Tactfulness and good manners. For any profession where communication with different layers of citizens is important, this will be a big plus.

Possessing these qualities, the broker will find a way out of any difficult situation and defend the interests of the client, which is very important for this type of activity.

Carier start

Beginners who decide to master this complex, but highly profitable and in-demand profession are recommended to take training courses. There they will explain everything clearly, tell you what exactly the meaning of this work is, give advice on where you can attend seminars, communicate with professionals who will help you gain first experience and understanding of the tasks in this field of activity.

A little time will pass, and the required knowledge and necessary skills will come. Then the question of what it takes to become a realtor will be absolutely clear and the profession will begin.

The work is quite specific and beginners should know that in this profession the appearance of the agent is of great importance. A client, seeing an unkempt person calling himself a realtor, will not be able to warm up to him and is unlikely to want to cooperate.

A presentable appearance, friendliness, tact, and the ability to persuade will win the client over, and then the knowledge gained during training will be used.

Where can you start working as a realtor?

You can start your career from scratch. In any field of activity, it is useful to learn from experience from senior colleagues.

Renting residential and commercial real estate

You can gain your first experience and skills as a broker through residential real estate rental transactions. In this area of activity, on average, 10 to 15 transactions are concluded per month, the broker's commission is small. Despite the fact that renting out housing on a daily basis is the least profitable, you gain good experience and it will help you carry out serious transactions in the future. A novice broker will be able to understand for himself what it takes to become a realtor.

If an agent decides to work with commercial real estate (renting shops, offices, warehouses), then on average they carry out from 4 to 10 successful transactions within a month.

To start working in this area, a broker must know the operating instructions and decrees that allow the use of this type of real estate.

Buying and selling residential real estate

This area of activity is the most profitable, but also difficult for realtors; few transactions are carried out, on average from 2 to 4 per month. The agents work in two directions: preparing documents for the purchase of primary housing in new buildings and secondary, not new, ready-made premises. Professional realtors involved in “primary” work cooperate with banking structures due to the fact that many people buy housing with a mortgage and need help with paperwork and verification of the developer.

Resale agents find used housing, but it must meet the client’s wishes. They also have to check the ownership documents and identity of the home seller. The purchase and sale of luxury real estate located outside the city is the most profitable among all areas of activity for brokers, but it is the most difficult.

This is where a realtor will need communication skills, knowledge of psychology and other qualities. Clients are different and the agent must be able to find a common language with the rich and whimsical and achieve the required result. He needs to look for various options, for example, so that the entrance is equipped, the infrastructure is nearby, and at the same time, everything should be close to the city.

In this field of activity, a realtor is required to thoroughly know land law.

Independent work and how to look for clients

After the agency and gaining experience, you can move on to independent work. It will be required, and if you plan to work with partners, then you need to register a partnership. Next, you will need to rent office space, preferably closer to the city center.

Now it's time to look for clients. To do this, you will need to create your own website, since today most people are trying to find a buyer or tenant of real estate through the World Wide Web. In addition, you can find clients on popular free message boards. Finding them this way doesn't require much effort. You need to ring through advertisements for the purchase and sale of real estate and offer real estate services to everyone. After some time, the necessary client base will be accumulated.

Having experience, you can start working on your own without anyone’s help.

How much does a beginner and an experienced realtor earn?

A realtor's salary depends on how many successful transactions he makes, a percentage of which is his salary. There are statistics according to which the average salary of a real estate agent in Russia is 50–60 thousand rubles. per month. It is almost impossible to calculate the exact income of a realtor; each specific case may vary greatly. Here everything depends on the agent’s hard work, and what experience he has, as well as on his professional qualities.

Newcomers usually start their careers in real estate agencies. There, they will not reach high earnings, such as successful independent realtors. Having made a successful transaction, the broker needs to give half of the profit to the real estate agency. For this he has the opportunity to grow up the career ladder. Without experience, an agent can expect an income of 30 to 40 thousand rubles. per month.

In many ways, the financial component depends on the region. Moscow and the Moscow Region differ in earnings from others. The average realtor there earns from 50 to 250 thousand rubles, this amount exceeds what his colleagues earn in other more remote regions. Top Moscow realtors earn from 300 thousand rubles. per month or even more, but these are only 5% of the total number of agents.

Factors influencing the realtor:

Personal qualities and professionalism
Working for an agency or working independently
Region of the country where the realtor carries out his work

These three factors are the most important, the work of an agent is quite specific, they decide everything.

What does a self-employed real estate agent earn?

The main source of income for a realtor is commissions. An independent intermediary in the capital and in most other regions and regions receives 1.3–3% of a successful transaction. There are professional agents, they can stipulate exclusive conditions, these people work with him at all existing stages of the transaction and the commission amount can reach up to 6%.

The amount of monetary compensation directly depends on the professionalism and experience of the realtor.

There are many professions and they all have their own nuances for achieving success. What does it take to become a realtor? The following rules must be followed:

Always have a neat appearance
Constantly work on yourself, improving all the necessary qualities
Be able to express thoughts and convey them to clients and partners beautifully and competently
Have good communication skills
Be able to please people
Being competent and confident is what clients like

To work successfully, you must have your own vehicle so that you are never late for a meeting. This will greatly increase your chances of succeeding in your business.

To become the best you need to get rid of such qualities

There are many obstacles on the path to success, but they can be overcome if a person has set a clear goal and knows what exactly he wants. It is of great importance that you need to realize what negative qualities interfere with successful promotion. Here are some character traits that prevent a realtor from developing normally:

Uncertainty. A successful agent is confident in himself and in what he says. When selling or renting out real estate to people, you can’t be disingenuous; they sense the falseness. If it seems that it will not be possible to deliver the object, then there is no need to take on this matter. Only self-confidence will help you conclude a successful deal.
Shyness. There is no place for shy people in this job. If this character trait is present, then you will not be able to become a successful realtor.
Arrogance and rudeness. With these qualities, it is impossible to achieve great success as an agent. Culture and politeness are the main thing for a realtor.

In addition, many cannot properly plan their day, week, month, but they need it, and they need to do it themselves.

It is important to have time to constantly study and improve the fundamentals of economics, law, and mortgage lending; it is necessary to analyze the positive and negative aspects of investing in real estate.
