Fees Associated With Becoming a Real Estate Agent In CA

[Jordan Thibodeau]

Hi Everyone,

I keep hearing about the advantages of getting your RE license, but I heard it's expensive to become an RE agent in CA, especially on a part time basis while working a full time job.

I'm thinking about getting my real estate license so I can start writing my own offers on property in Sacramento.

If I became licensed, but I didn't plan on working at a brokerage house. How could I go about doing this? And, what type of fees would I have pay in order to gain access to the MLS list? I intend only to write offers on property that I'm purchasing, and I would never sell houses on my behalf or a third party.

Also, I have taken a few real estate classes and I have my B.S.

Thanks,

Jordan
