Earnings
There is no set pay scale for real estate developers. How much they make depends on their skill and experience, the size of the projects on which they work, the structure established for their payment in the development entity contract, and the successful completion of the project. Some real estate developers become millionaires. An exceptional few become billionaires, such as President Donald Trump, who made his fortune developing properties across the United States and overseas as chairman and CEO of the Trump Organization and founder of Trump Entertainment Resorts.
