Thoughts and Advice on my current situation

Hi! My last post a while ago connected me with some great people who had some great advice and wanted to reach out again. 

A little background - I have been educating myself in all things REI for over 3 years now. First invested a solid chunk of money into a flipping mentorship, listened to every BP Rookie episode ever made, more podcasts, more books, more phone calls, and finally landed a really cool position working for an investor in my area. I have now found myself at a standstill.

A while back I passed my pre-license course in GA and never continued to take my state exam (my job was going so well and my main focus was finding a deal to invest in at the time). I am now in NC and am actually looking to move to my home state of Florida (Jacksonville to be exact). I still have no deals under my belt but I did get experience seeing first hand the "ins and outs" of deal structures working under an active investor. 

I am really considering going back to get my license and use my network to primarily work with investors. I want to move to FL in about a year. Should I go ahead and get my license here in NC or get it in FL? (My thoughts: they do not have reciprocity between NC and FL and I will already have it ready to go when I move if going the FL route). How difficult will it be to move and begin a real estate career in a newish city? 

I really just would love to hear someones thoughts on my situation. 

Side note: If any active investors in Jacksonville or FL in general are looking for a VA or Administrative support from someone who has some experience, I would love to chat with you!

Thank you!!!
