I am looking for a civil engineering firm or a land surveyor who can survey large parcel of land and help with drawing up plans for a small subdivision. We are looking in the north eastern counties of Georgia. Any recommendation is highly appreciated. Thanks

Sorry John, I should have been more specific. I am looking to buy and sell on the MLS. I want to be able to represent myself in those transactions and retain a portion of the commission. The license would also be convenient in that I could view houses found on the MLS without another agent present. I also want access to the wealth of knowledge on the MLS for data mining purposes without having to go to an agent each time I need information.

I am a Real Estate licensee in Georgia. I am also a Realtor. In Georgia, you do not have to be a Realtor. Realtor is just a trade association for real estate licensees. You are not required to join a local board of Realtors unless your Broker requires it. At my former broker, I was required to be a member of the local Realtor board. I was also not allowed to represent myself on sell or buy side of transaction. They always wanted me to use another agent in the firm.

Just make sure that you associate yourself with an investor friendly Broker who will let you represent yourself in a transaction. Ask the Broker if you have to join the local board of Realtors. In Metro Atlanta area you have to be under a Broker who subscribes to FMLS and GAMLS (two major MLS services) to get access to these services. In metro Atlanta you get your access to these listing services via your Broker. This may be different in other parts of GA so you may want to ask a real estate agent in your town. Good luck with your license exam.

I am in for Oct 24th  This will be my first meeting. I will need the time and address. Thanks.

Just make sure that after you get licensed you join a investor friendly firm. 

I am building new homes in Forsyth co. I have one completed and under contract and I have another being completed. We have 3 other lots that we plan to start construction on starting January. Let me know if you need more details. All properties would be good rentals or homes for first time home buyers.

@David Briley  I am also considering Ixact Contact. How did you get it for $25/month .. Regular price is $34.95/month.  Do you have a discount code for $25/m that you can share.
