Real Estate line seems like super hot in Singapore (where property market also super hot). Agent Fee for rental is one month, for sales is 1%, one week seal one deal already $10k++ a month. No wonder my mailbox every week sure got dozens of real estate agent flyers inside

As far as I know...since 2007 , there is an increase in property agents as exclusion of property gain tax.  Then lately , bnm impose only 70% loan on 3rd housing loan which may dampen the industry.
But since 2007 'boom', many heard property agents earn big money(obviously they did), many interested to join this line  esp with its east entry level(no need licence, no need paper qualification)
. But what really takes in this line?  I read some being raped, robbed, beaten up , car stolen, lost 200 client property keys etc etc. Always get sided by buyer n seller as they transact directly with each other once they get the chance to contact each other. Some agent only manage to sell 1st property after 7 months of the job.Some being threatened by gangster in new 'protected' area.
I think lowyat.net dont have much member working as property agent to make their 'confession'
