Licensing

Happy Friday to you all! 

I have read a lot of threads about whether or not its worth it to get a Real estate licence as an investor. Wanted to word the question from my own perspective..... 

In a perfect world I get my Missouri realtor's license...

Work for a Broker that leaves me alone for 2 years (experience per law) while I kick up percentages to them on all my deals. 

Improve network while buying/ holding / selling property those 2 years...

I then obtain my Brokerage license and i'm 100% free!   

Ultimately the benefits I'm seeing from obtaining licensing are...

1.) MLS access 2.) Lower commission costs on deals 3.) Network 

I feel all of these benefits can be achieved if I remain an individual investor.....So why do it? 

Sort of thinking out loud here but wanted to bounce it off you all. 

Thanks! 

- Dave
