Is it worth it to get a real estate license?

[Pragati Soni]

Hello everyone,

 I am actually going to start looking for a home for myself in the next 6 months and figured I could save some money if I obtain a real estate license. I have been passively looking for the last 3 months and have not had the best experience with real estate agents. Plus, I am really interested in doing my own research and would like to have control and access to additional tools that agents use. 

My long-term goal is to own multi-unit properties but considering I don't have a lot of a capital I am willing to do whatever it takes to learn and gain some experience with properties. What do you guys think?

Any feedback/advice is appreciated. 

Thanks!
