The real estate industry is famous for being one of the most lucrative and profitable industries in Malaysia. To be part of the industry, you can either be a real estate negotiator (REN) to sell properties or be a registered estate agent (REA) where you can open up an estate agency and recruit RENs to work under you.

Why should I get an REA license?

• Being an REA allows you to have flexible timing for work and it doesn’t tie you down to a 9am - 5pm schedule. Since you are in charge of your work hours, you can even choose to work during the evenings or weekends.
• An REA can also have up to 50 RENs working underneath them, getting a commission from each sale that is made from a REN that is attached to their agency. This makes for a very handsome return in profit and is a great form of passive income.
• REAs have the privilege of being their own boss while making large amounts of money in the process.
• An REA also has the opportunity to earn a good passive monthly salary
