@George S. welcome to BP and RE! Next step you should get to REIA meet ups. They are great for bringing your knowledge to conversation and networking. There are deals at some. I look forward to meeting you.

@Steve Borodin welcome to BP! Tampa is competitive right now but you'll have an edge because you're looking for rental not flip. We have many great REIA meet ups! Let me know if you decide to venture East of i75

@Jake Calle first I'd ask why are you becoming an agent? If you truly want to sell homes retail then go for It! If you are doing it to get into the investing side I'd say wait and spend that money else where. Later if you decide you need the license go for it. I think a lot of people go this route because they think it's the best way, but you do not need a license to be an investor. Keep reading on here and asking questions, hope I helped :-)

@Chad Jones although we've already connected I wanted to welcome you to BP. I believe being in Plant City puts us in a great location to work the Lakeland market as well as East Hillsborough (Brandon and parts of Tampa).
Winter Strawberry Capital of the World!

@John Rogers and @Joe Harper gave Great advice! If you don't have experience in Lakeland city limits for rehab work be sure to do your research because the permitting office and code enforcement are said to be worse than any city around. I Love the are for rentals!

@Steven Paul there's an event/meeting next Monday you may find interesting. https://www.facebook.com/events/578718118947330/
It's not exactly on your topic, but I think some things will overlap which you will find beneficial. I look forward to meeting you there as I'm attending because I do not have much knowledge in this area.
