Realtor License

Jennifer Rogers

Posted

I am just becoming serious about investing in the Denver area. I have heard some investors say that a realtor's license is a huge benefit and you should have one while others say it is not necessary. I am mostly interested in having access to the MLS.

Does anyone have any insight they could share regarding this?

Thanks in advance,

Jennifer

Replied

For buy and hold rentals doesn't give you that much of an advantage.  In Wisconsin you have to disclose you are a licensed realtor on offers, and many times I feel sellers can think something is fishy if realtors are trying to buy their property.  I feel you get the best deals for buy and hold by not being a realtor.
