Dallas-Fort Worth Investor Considering License

Good morning y'all!

My wife and I are new investors (4 years in the game) in Dallas Fort Worth focused on MFH buy and hold.  I'm very passionate about real estate and have thought a lot about getting my real estate license in Texas.  However, I'm doing a feasibility study on obtaining a license, and I'm not sure if it would be worth the money, time, and effort if we're only buying one investment property a year.  Would it be possible to sell one or two houses a year for clients to cover the costs of having a license?  Is this not realistic?  I know that there are like 30,000 something real estate agents in Dallas, most of whom probably work full time.

Currently, my primary career is in enterprise tech sales (which I am also very passionate about), and I'm not willing to consider switching careers at the moment....

Also if anyone in DFW would be interested in coffee, I'm always looking to meet some like minded real estate professionals!  We live in the Allen area :-)
