Best way to "Hang a Brokers License"

[Jarrod Kohl]

Hello,

A little different than just looking to find somewhere to hang my RE Lic.  I have been working in property management for a while now.  And over the last few years I have kept my license active.  After completing the test and for the last year I have had my brokers license.

Now that I am looking to start my own real estate investments, what would be the best way to utilize it? Do I need to set up an LLC or Corp in order to run things through my Brokers? I have not been working as a real estate agent and my real estate background is almost all in Commercial so I am probably less familiar than someone who has been doing residential for the last few years.

Anyone know a good place to start, looking to move quickly since I don't want my license with my current company if I start buying and selling properties with it.  

FYI this if for Massachusetts.
