1. Elizabeth Olsen

Before Elizabeth Olsen was a star on the big screen, she got her real estate license so that she didn't have to work in a restaurant as her summer job. She ended up working with a friend of her famous older sisters but admits she wasn't the best at the job.

"I got my real estate license because I didn't want to work in a restaurant in New York, as a summer job. So I thought, I'll work in a real estate office. I was dealing with my sister's friend who was a realtor, and I dealt with his rental clients. And I would mispronounce streets in New York, because I had just moved there, all the time," she told W Magazine.

2. Kendra Wilkinson

Former Playmate Kendra Wilkinson got her real estate license in 2020 after being interested in the profession for years. Even while living in the Playboy mansion, Kendra says she invested in different properties but just never had the time to make it a full career while she was on television. After her split from ex-husband Hank Baskett, Kendra knew she had to make a change in her life for her children.

"I found myself in a three-year depression, very, very depressed, and I lost everything pretty much, everything except for my children. It was just me and the kids, and I had to get back up and fight for my life, and I chose real estate...I signed up for real estate to provide for my children. This is a real job for me, this is what I have, and this is what I'm committing myself to," she said to The List.

3. Ramona Singer

"Real Housewife of New York" star Ramona Singer has been training to be a real estate agent for the past year.

"I've always been very business-oriented and entrepreneurial. I know I'm a natural in real estate and if I can make money doing that, cause you know, money is my aphrodisiac," Ramona said during the episode.

4. Emma Slater

"Dancing With The Stars" professional Emma Slater got her real estate license last year after secretly studying for the exam for quite some time. On Instagram, she explained that she plans to use the license for her personal investments as well as helping others find their perfect home.

"Not too many people know this but I've been studying for quite a while, and I've had a passion for real estate all my life. I plan to use it for personal investments as well as help others with their real estate needs too. Now I can Cha Cha Cha round my open houses while I show you how big the closet space is!" Emma wrote.

5. Arie Luyendyk Jr.

Former "Bachelor" Arie Luyendyk Jr. has switched his focus from racing cars to selling houses! Arie obtained his real estate license in 2016, just a year before looking for love on "The Bachelor."

I don't know why you're not jumping into it.' I'm like, okay, I knew there was a reason why I kept my real estate license active," Tamra said on "RealiTea With Derek Z."
