Hey all!
I'm kinda new to this forum but have been reading for a while now. Here's my situation: I'm currently completing my real estate agent certification here in Canada, and I plan to move to Dubai right after to work as a real estate agent.
I have spoken with several people on other boards and the information I'm getting is only confusing me more. Many have told me that a good agent makes around 60k aed to 80k aed per month, but then I've checked most job offers in that field and havent found anything over 15k aed +commission + benefits. It seems like it's very hard to get accurate info on this field of work.
Can I really expect to make between 45k and 65k monthly in commission? I've also checked the Macdonald and company salary survey that just came out and it states the average for someone in real estates sales/leasing including bonuses is 641,9j aed per annum. Can anyone tell me how reliable this info is?
I currently have a job here in canada that pays me about 200k aed, might not seem like much but the cost of living here is much lower and it is considered a good salary, plus i love that job. I would hate to give up that position for something not worth it financially speaking. Any help would be appreciated!
