Should I get rid of my RE license
I started out as a wholesaler and that is my main focus. I am now rehabbing and will eventually acquire rental units. I got my license to help aid in my ability to find and analyze deals. However, I have no intent to list homes or do any of the traditional agent strategies. The more I have learned about the liabilities as an agent , the more I consider getting rid of it. I do a lot of direct mail and that alone requires certain disclosures to the point where I feel it could reduce my response rate significantly. I can gain access to the MLS other ways, and feel the risk (liability) may not be worth the reward. Should I drop the license?
