Real Estate License
Most Popular Reply

Hi! @Jerome Morelos and @Braheim Wilson Getting a license only teaches you real estate laws and procedures as it pertains to sellers, buyers, contracts, deeds etc. It doesn't teach you how to market, list, or wholesale/flip a property, so eventually, it would be good to find a seasoned investor to mentor you. Some investors may say that it isn't worth it, mainly because after becoming licensed, you are bound by a different set of rules. Complete disclosure is mandatory in order to ensure that you are in compliance with the real estate license law. I got mine and I thought it was definitely worth it. I learned tons of valuable information that can be applied to your new career as an investor. The more you know, the better off you will be. To me, disclosing your status as a licensee shouldn't be a problem unless you are breaking the law.
