Knowledge and Education: Before getting into the real estate business it's very important to seek knowledge and also learn the rudimentary of the business, also learn how to apply the principles of the business to your local location where you intend to run the business, you can also intern at a real estate company where you live.

Capital: Next in line is capital, you can learn all you can but if you don't have enough capital you won't be able to make money out of it, it's important to be well capitalized to at least buy one or two homes to get started.

Estate management is what some people spend years to study in the university before they can practice. However, one can still enter the industry with some basic rudimentary skills. One of such skills is that you must understand the property laws in the country as it relates with contracts and the slight variation from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

You must also have the ability to understand and predict trends to be able to identify a location that is bound to see development to make investments in property there. Good capital is also needed if you want to go into buying/ selling of properties and development for tenancy. The only part of real estate that huge capital is not required is agency.
