Summary: The Guide for Career-Minded Realters
Review: I found this guide really helpful because it highlighted a whole world beyond that of just a Real Estate Agent, which is what I've always had in mind. This is a great resource for people interested in the large scale real estate industry, especially in commercial and corporate. If working for a large, national, diversified real estate company is what you aim for, this is the guide for you. I have now narrowed down my search to focus on the companies that most appeal to me, and this is based on solid information, not just opinions. The "On The Job" section was also helpful in showing me the differences, pros, and cons, among the various career paths. This is a great guide for those who aspire to have a full-time career in real estate.

Summary: Just what I needed
Review: This guide provided just what I needed. I've already got my Realter's license and just wanted a simple, accesible source to guide me through my job search. The WetFeet guide provided a simple industry break down along with loads of resources for researching and contacting the larger national firms. I especially liked the Real People Profiles that described actual jobs that people had. It made it very easy to picture myself doing the same job.

Summary: Getting my real estate license
Review: this was helpful for me in terms of giving me some good ideas and leads for what to do once i get my real estate license. i especially liked the background information on the industry landscape, from REITs to brokerage to property management. I'm excited at the prospect at starting small and then continuing to try new things in this potentially lucrative industry. and i'm definitely ready for a change from sales to real estate.
