 You might be surprised to know that that there is a difference between being a Realtor and a real estate agent. Although the two terms are commonly used interchangeably, becoming a Realtor takes much more work, dedication, and education than becoming an agent. In addition, becoming a Realtor and maintaining this type of certification requires adhering to certain high standards that are not required to become a real estate agent.
Becoming a Real Estate Agent
Becoming an agent is not necessarily an easy task. After all, in order to legally work as a real estate agent, one has to complete several weeks of schooling and then successfully pass an examination. In order to successfully pass the examination, you have to have a solid understanding of real estate laws and practices. At the same time, successful completing of the coursework and passing the test really only tests the person's knowledge but does nothing to test the person's code of ethics. This is what differentiates a Realtor from a real estate agent.
