I've had my wife preparing to get her RE license (I work a full-time Corp Job). The intent is not to be a typical agent that does listing/selling but for the purpose of assisting with the better acquisition of investment properties.

I've started to wonder though if getting a license is possibly a disadvantage with all the legal exposure and notifications one must make when buying, selling, and renting your properties. IL real estate law is what I'm talking about. Not sure about other states.

Does anyone see a RE license as a disadvantage when really doing it for improved investment desires? Is it better not to be a RE agent so as not to take on the additional legal burdens surrounding this license?

Thoughts?
