Thinking about being a real estate agent
So when I first decided that I wanted to do real estate I didn't want any part of being an agent but after I have thought about it I think it could be a really good learning experience and if I've learned anything from the past week or two that I have spent on here it's that knowledge is very very powerful in real estate. Here's the thing though, I don't know the first thing about being an agent. One last question. Are there any other ways of gaining experience in real estate?

I never intended on becoming a Real Estate Agent. I think a lot of people love Real Estate Investment and through a series of bad experiences, they decide that they need to be able to access MLS, write offers, etc. instead of relying on someone else. I have had a great experience with it so far.
You don't have to become an agent. Buy books, listen to podcasts, go to meet ups. All of these things will expand your Real Estate knowledge.
