If you or anyone you know has ever considered starting a real estate career, there's no time like the present. Aside from the fact that the opportunities real estate professionals have today are unprecedented ... it will never be easier or more economical then it is right now to obtain a real estate license.
With the revision of the real estate license law, the course work required to get a real estate license will more than double from the current 45 hours to 120 hours after May 1, 2011. That means if you do it now, you can still get a real estate license with a 45-hour pre-license course like the programs offered by Your House Real Estate Academy in Bloomingdale and their 9 other locations.
Getting your real estate license will never be easier.

What are they thinking?
Our Illinois lawmakers have done it again. They just often seem to take one step forward and two steps back.
The Real Estate License Law rewrite, signed by Governor Ryan at the very last minute last December, was supposed to "raise the bar" for real estate licensees by increasing the education requirements and changing the license categories.
Now the Governor has Senate Bill 3018 on his desk, waiting for his signature, that extends the time frame that a licensed real estate managing broker, broker or leasing agent may renew their license after it has expired from TWO to FIVE years! What sense does that make?
A real estate licensee can let their license expire and renew it five years later with out any additional education ... just a late charge. That doesn't sound like raising the bar to me.
