Final Thoughts

Working in real estate investment trusts can be both fulfilling and financially rewarding, but you’ll need to be ready for both hard work and competition.

When you’re considering a career in real estate, don’t forget to think long-term. For example, while there are more than five times as many real estate administrative assistant positions available as real estate brokers, administrative assistant jobs are projected to decline by 7% through 2030, while broker roles will grow by 7% at the same time frame.
