Should I get my license?

[Rebecca C.]

I want to start investing in coastal GA and NE Fla. I live in this area too.  I am considering getting my real estate license to be able to view the properties when I want, as well as get the commission to use towards rehab or other property DPs. It’s hard to stomach passing on commission money to an agent when I could just go get my license. Has anyone else gone this route? What are your thoughts?
