Taking action on my RE license!
I have read many posts on having a RE license as an investor. There seems to be a lot of positives and just a few very vague negatives. I have just purchased my course and am now studying for my state exam. I actually sold RE way back in the late '80s but I'm sure things have changed just a little bit since then :). I am getting my license for access to the MLS but another big reason is several members of my large family are planning on selling and buying next spring. I will be keeping my day job and need to find a investor friendly Managing Broker .
This is a continuation of my promise to START TAKING ACTION after getting stuck in the "analyze until I know everything and can eliminate all risk" fantasy.
J Scott is my mentor (but don't tell him he doesn't know it). I have read his books cover to cover and am using his business plan template to get going. I hope to be licensed in November. I am going to focus on being a great listing agent and making sure I know possible conflicts when combining my RE Investing with my RE career.
