How to get your Nebraska Real Estate License and start a Real Estate Business!
Tips on the process to getting a real estate license, and building a real estate business in Nebraska presented by Team Lead and licensed broker- Jamie Flanagan.
Are You Thinking of Starting a Real Estate Business?
As the team lead of a top producing small team in Omaha, we get asked this question a lot….how do I get into real estate. Real estate can be an extremely lucrative career, and our team has put over a million dollars into developing the team, and strategies we use. I don’t say this to scare you, I say this to open you up to the idea that this is a business, not something we believe in doing part time. That’s not to say you can’t do this part time! In fact if you own investment properties or plan too, its a great strategy to get your license for tax reasons! Chat with your CPA or DM me for information!
I want you to know that I am extremely passionate to help you grow into a successful agent! The failure rate in this business is high, however I can say to date I haven’t coached any agents that went back to a 9-5 or previous job! I have coached several out of needing their 9-5 and doubling their income with this business! That’s a huge win in my opinion with 87% of agents failing!
Now if you are serious about a real estate business or sales career with our team, here is what you need to know!
Getting the license is one part, and building a business is another part! Let’s dig into an easy to follow timeline to align the two!
- Start building your database now!
- Using an excel spread sheet start gathering names, addresses, emails for everyone you know and have met!
Our team coaches and hires based on your ability to grow client relationships. If you are interested in joining our team, we offer a paid 6 month internship. If you are interested in this please request more info by sending an email to - [email protected]
- Enroll in classes-I personally went to Randall School of real Estate, and many of my agents went to Mark Wehners Reesults Coaching. You will take 3 classes. Jamie took principles and practices and real estate law. There is also an ethics class required. DM me for links to anything I refer to!

- Send your background check card in asap!! (Right when you start your classes) This can hold up you taking your test! Then you end up taking the test after forgetting prudent information, no fun!
- Schedule a test review course a couple weeks before your test. Jamie's team used this online exam prep https://www.reesultscoaching.com/exam-prep
- Once you complete your classes and your background check is in, you can schedule your test. There is a national and state portion.
- Once you pass your test, you will be ready to sign on with a broker! (we hope that’s us!
- Watch my video about the differences between joining a team and joining as a real estate partner with us to understand what may be best for you!
Tips about picking a Broker
You are interviewing them to see which will be a good fit. You will get a lot of calls, and I encourage you to meet with at least 3-4 brokers. While we hope you're a good fit at our broker, that may not be the case. To schedule a business strategy call with Jamie, click here https://calendly.com/bigpicturerealestategroup?month=2020-10

By joining a team, you can gain momentum by having the team refer you leads while you are growing your database and learning the ropes! All of our agents who have spent their first 1-2 years with us have earned $75,000-$100,000 annually starting out and are all well over 6 figures now.
