Mortgage Broker License/Value

[Josh Tonnesen]

Hello all,

I have recently bought my first rental property, and I was looking through the different costs associated with buying the property. I noticed the lender paid the broker 5-6k, and I thought that was a pretty large amount. I wanted to see if anyone on here had any thoughts on the difficulty on obtaining a brokerage license, and if it is worth it. I think I would have access to lower rates, and hopefully save some of that brokerage cost. 

Thanks.
