Buckle down or do something else?

I’m not sure if I should continue in real estate or go back to school to be a teacher or nurse? I’ve had my license for a couple years but haven’t had much success. I am 43 and have two kids so real estate is ideal as far as flexibility. I was on a team the first few months but I was expected to be in the office everyday which I couldn’t do since I have young kids. I seem to have a lot of anxiety about real estate and haven’t really given it my all. I have a lot of self doubt and am not the most comfortable selling myself. I wonder if I should just buckle down and give real estate my all or go back to school to do something else where I don’t have to put myself in it there as much to succeed. It would be a lot of work either way just wondering what other people have experienced or what you may think. I’m considering whether teaching or nursing would suit me better but since I have my license I wonder if I still have a chance of being successful if I get over my self doubt. And I wonder if I should join a team or just keep trying on my own.

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...

How to get started?

Hi! I’m 23F and I just graduated college with an english degree (😅) but i’ve been working in nonprofits since I was 16 and lucked into an amazing first job with an one of the biggest and best real estate non-profits! I love my job so far, but it’s my first time being surrounded by such wealth (and very hard working, deserving individuals.) To be quite honest, I‘ve had a rough few years juggling multiple jobs to finish school, and the idea of myself not living paycheck to paycheck seems light years away. This is all being said, I guess I’m posing the question towards the group of what I can do now to start building that kind of future for myself. I find real estate very interesting, and i’ve loved learning about all the machinations behind development- I’m just not sure where to begin within the industry (investment/rentals are definitely not an option for me yet). I’m also looking to go back to school, but being that I don’t know where to start, I wouldn’t like to begin classes aga...
