Hey guys, I'm pretty new to BP & learning about REI. I'm curious if, when starting out, you find it helpful to get a Real Estate License? Assuming this answer is situational upon which route someone decides to take, I can tell you that I've been interested in SFR, BRRR, and Duplex/Triplex/Quads.
Any advice around this topic would be very helpful!

No one else has answered, so I thought I'd help a touch. Sadly, I can't help much. My best advice is to do a search on BP. I've seen that question asked several times, but I wasn't interested, so I can't tell you what the answer was. But I know one of the responses broke down all these other fees you have to pay to keep your license like fees to view the MLS and such. There were like 6-8 fees, as I recall. Some you might not need, like liability insurance. But others you do. Do you NEED a RE license. No. Could it benefit you? Quite possibly. Should you get one? Research.
