Becoming a licensed agent or not?

Hello Bigger Pockets community, 

        I am at a crossroads. I have almost completed my real estate license course and I'm wondering if having my license will delay my investing. In Oregon, for the first three years my principle broker needs to oversee all my real estate transactions including those that are for personal gain. Are there principle brokers out there that are willing to work with an investor? Does having your license hinder investing in any other ways besides this one? 

    Ideally I would like to work for a principle who does not mind me investing in addition to selling real estate. Best case scenario would be that they didn't even mind me doing creative financing such as "subject to" deals, but I do not know if that is even possible.  Any advice would be very appreciated. 

Thank you, Samantha
