The happiest employees of all aren't kindergarten teachers or veterinarians. They're real estate agents. Professionals with this job title are typically responsible for renting, buying, or selling property for clients. According to the BLS, they study property listings, interview prospective clients, accompany clients to property site, discuss conditions of sale, and draw up real estate contracts. They make about $51,170 per year, on average--but top earning real estate agents rake in over $92,000.
With an index score of 4.26, real estate agents said they are more than satisfied with the control they have over the work they do on a daily basis. They're also fairly content with their bosses.
"Real estate agents have definitely weathered quite a financial storm over the past few years but right now rates are between 2% and 3% and inventory is low, making it a real estate agents dream as new homes hit the market and are getting multiple offers in the first week," Golledge says. "Right now, it is a seller's market so the real estate agent's cost of advertising and marketing is very low and commissions are high. Happy times."
