Worth Becoming a real estate agent in 2019?
Hello I am 18 years old and I live in florida. I've been contemplating about getting my real estate license for a while now. I've researched the pro's and con's and I know a real estate agent still has to go through a broker. Is it worth becoming licensed in 2019? Also would I be able to become my own broker too and would that be worth it? Is full access to the MLS, more networking capabilities, and receiving the commission that other wise some other agent would get if you weren't your own when you bought/sold the house reason enough to get licensed? And yes I know it seems like I should due to the pro's. But please understand I'm asking on this forum with experienced professional's to be sure I'd be making the best choice possible.
