Anyone have a RE license?
Does anyone have or plan to get a RE license? Why or why not? Do I need a license to operate out-of-state? For example, I'm in Missouri and plan to start investing here, but I plan to expand (open LLCs as well) in Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, possibly Arkansas and Georgia. Why? Because I want to be able to take appropriate actions if I'm sued in those states and I can't do that (without headaches) if I'm not registered to do business in other states. Anyway, I disagree. With the logic that I'm using (opening LLCs in other states) this would also mean that I would/should have a RE license in those other states as well, but time and accurate information gather will decide that. Any input? Advice?
