Step One: Getting my Real Estate Associates License

Every BP Podcast Addict like me, have listen a million times the same answer to the famous question:

Q. What do you think sets apart successful real estate investors from those who fail, quit or never get started?

A. TAKE ACTION!

Let's review my Real Estate Investor checklist so far.

Joel REI checklist

I am very exciting about getting my license. It feels like taking real action, it is an inversion:

  • $485 GCS one week course.
  • $75 Fingerprints.
  • $89 DBPR Sales Associate Application Fee
  • $XX Office Depot.

This is just the beginning, nevertheless I am committed to make it worth. I'll keep you post with the progress, Let's see how it goes!

  1. Is your first deal really due in 2046?? I hope that is a type  ;)

    Glad to see you are moving on things. Too often people just get the high from talking about it, but never the experience of actually doing it. Great job so far.


    1. Hey Bryan, Thank you very much,

      2046 was way of saying that that my first investment feels far! Hopefully it will happen much sooner.


  2. I am now officially a Real Estate Agent. 

    I am very happy about this. Last tuesday feb/02/2016 I pass the State Test and get my license. 

    Next step, activate my license! I am looking at different options but either way, I want to became an investor friendly real estate agent!

  3. State Test appointment for Tuesday, Feb 2 2016!

    Even when what I have learn through BP does not apply for most of the test questions, I feel way ahead of my class regarding RE knowledge, so I am showing off a little bit during breaks and some class questions!


  4. First Day of class! So far so good. Gold Coast Schools summaries make the process look very simple. I am planning to take the state exam next monday, so I have to wait for the DBPR approval  and schedule the test.


  5. This is good to see, Joel. Build that checklist, keep pushing forward and stretch yourself. If it's scary, you're probably doing something right. You're right that taking action is so important. And just as important is persistence in the face of obstacles.


    1. @Kent Scary indeed, overwhelming some time, appreciate your comments. Thank you very much.

  6. Good job! Way to put your goals out there and create some accountability.  Keep taking small steps toward your goals and you will pass them before you know it!


    1. Thank You @Owen it really helps! to know that I am not alone.
