Real estate is a legal term (in some jurisdictions, notably in the USA, United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia) that encompasses land along with anything permanently affixed to the land, such as buildings, specifically property that is stationary, or fixed in location. Real estate is often considered synonymous with real property (also sometimes called realty), in contrast with personal property (also sometimes called chattel or personalty). However, in some situations the term "real estate" refers to the land and fixtures together, as distinguished from "real property," referring to ownership rights of the land itself.
The terms real estate and real property are used primarily in common law, while civil law jurisdictions refer instead to immovable property.

A. I have the advantage of being 40 years old and knowing how the world works now. If I were 20 or 21 I wouldn't have known this and probably would have made a great mistake...When I went to college for engineering there were a ton of other people who were there to please their parents. They didn't know anything about engineering and didn't really want to be there. It showed. They failed out and had to change majors or drop out of college. In this case you dad really wants you to do this. He is hoping that you'll share his passion and his success (he really is trying to do well for you and he thinks this is the way to do it). He figures you just need a little enticing and it is pretty nice enticement. If you don't share the…

A. You have to be prepared to deal with the ups and downs of the market. You also have to be prepared to generate your own business. If you are great with people and well connected in your community and great at marketing yourself, yes this can be a great career.You have unlimited earning potential. But, you may also have months where you make NO money. Especially in the beginning.Also, a career in Real Estate offers some flexibility. Though you probably won't make any money working a 9-5 schedule, you know that you can usually set your own hours. But be prepared to give up some evenings and weekends. That's usually when most people want to look at homes.Contact a local real estate office to find out what you need to do to get…
