Pursue real estate license or not?

[Colin Rawlings]

I’m brand new to real estate investing. I’ve been buying books to learn, listening to podcasts and looking through the information here on BP. I would really like to hear your opinion on whether it is a good investment to obtain my real estate license? A recent podcast I listened interviewed Kris Krohn and he actually recommended not for varying reasons. To me it seems like it would help cut costs on deals since I wouldn’t be required to pay commission to two agents and could work on my own deal. I’m really looking forward to everyone’s advice and greatly appreciate your time!
