@Cameron Cole Vance I got mine right when I bought my first property 3 years ago. I've got 17 buildings and 41 units. I am now a managing Broker of my own property management company. No downsides that I have come across. Just make sure you know what your doing.

    @Cameron Cole Vance. It's great to take the class and to have a license but to be active with a broker is very expensive. The RE class I took a few years back when I first started investing was one of the best things I could have done. One of the worst things was to try to be a part time realtor and pay all the fees required. I did that for about 18 months. However so glad I took the class.
