Real Estate License

Brian Tran

Hello Investors,

I have considered getting a real estate license for the sake of education by understanding the other side of the deal. I understand that with a license you save money on commissions, save the hassle of a "middle man" in a transaction, and you have access to the MLS.

I discovered this agency that would mentor me and I understand real estate agencies are kinda shady in that aspect but I believe this agency is credible. Would it be useful to go through this? It's a commitment. I heard as a REI you don't have to get a license. But what if you were mentored step-by-step from the realtor's perspective could that give you an edge? If it could then how?

Also as a noobie who's learning, a bonus is being able to have credibility and knowledge to meet with a local investor group to build connections, mentorships, and partnerships with my license making me a more valuable partner and proving that i'm serious in this as a young man. 

Thanks, I appreciate you for taking your time to read this post.

Sincerely,

Brian Tran
