Realestate agent question for investments

[Nirzhar Kar]

So i am thinking about getting my license so it can assist me on my investments. I will be flipping houses so i figured getting my license can help with seeing MLS and houses that i can invest on. Also i can save money on closing costs. But the question i had is that will i have to work for a broker to get access to all those things like mls site and other realestate leads possible to invest on? And will i be able to save on my closing costs by being my own agent if i dont work for anyone? I really am not planning to work for anyone but just use the license to further my investments. So can someone clarify on all of this?
