Do you like looking at houses? Do you keep track of the good schools in your town or city? Are you aware of the good neighborhoods and not-so-good neighborhoods in your city or town? When you see a home for sale or a new residential development, are you curious about the asking prices for the home(s)? If you answered yes to any of these questions, real estate might be a good career or business choice for you! According to CNN Money, the U.S real estate market is hot again! Interest rates are still low, and unemployment is at a 10-year low of 4.5%. This might be the perfect time to consider a career or business in real estate.

- property manager
- rental manager
- real estate investor
- real estate analyst
- property maintenance (cleaning, painting, repairing, installing)
- home inspector

Some of the aforementioned careers or businesses require a license or certification.
