Post: Is being a real estate agent a disadvantage for investing?

Hi,

I was planning to get my real estate agent license before getting into investing in real estate. I spoke to an investor who advised me against it saying that it will open me up to more legal liabilities if I have a Real Estate agent license.

I am aware that if I get a Real Estate Agent license, I need to disclose it before entering into any transaction, which is perfectly fine. 

Is there any other cons? I am looking at a California REA license.

Thanks,

Johnson

Hi Julie,

Really encouraging to read about your journey. I particularly liked the following part of your why - "Being able to give freely and be a blessing to others, both financially and with our time, out of extreme gratitude for the countless ways God has chosen to bless us", and I believe God will bless you even more to be able to give more.

Luke 6: 38(KJV) Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.

Regards,

Johnson

Am at the location with no idea of the unit. The address is of a shopping village.

@Arianne L. Thanks for sharing. This is such an inspiring story. Especially for a person like me who is just starting out in REI as well as in the crazy Bay Area market. Still contemplating on the best plan of action.

Thanks,

Johnson

@Gary Mendrin,
Yes I am open to investing in the Fresno market. Have not explored the prices and returns though. 

Cheers,
