Want to become an agent - what to do?

Currently I have a degree in music, which I know has no relation whatsoever to real estate, but I am looking to change paths. I live in Zurich, Switzerland, originally from Ticino, Switzerland. Currently trying to figure out what I need to do to become a real estate agent. I have three London School of Economics certifications (not degrees, but long courses I have done) - Real Estate - Managerial Finance - MBA essentials

My end goal is to have a career in real estate either as a broker or as an investor. It’s a long time away, I’m talking in years and years time. But for now just start as a real estate agent.

What would my steps be to become a real estate agent? Get a degree in real estate? Or is a degree not needed? I thought to get an MBA of some sort, or a finance degree. I saw Engel and Volkers hire people with different backgrounds and train them. But that sounds too good to be true?

Very lost in all of this, could someone knowledgeable help me?

P.S. I’m sorry I’m not very smart in this regard :( I have been researching this for hours getting very different answers. Please bare with me :(

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
