To License or Not to License?????????
Hey all,
I'm a newbie Wholesaler and am really struggling with finding deals and more importantly when I do find what could be a deal finding reliable comp data for ARV. I'm not getting very much cooperation from realtors on helping me with comps.
I'm on a very limited budget to get started and am weighing the merits of becoming a licensed real estate agent.
Pros: Access to MLS, Access to seeing listed houses any time I want, if I work with an RE agency getting to sell properties, Making referral fees on those deals that the numbers don't work.
Cons: Taking a lot of time out of my days to get the license, costing valuable $$ that could be going into DM campaigns, and a little nervous it's distracting me from taking my eye off the prize - in other words is this just one more place I am choosing to get more educated rather than just diving in and making deals.
Any input???
