Wholesaling while being a RE Agent - conflict of interest?
Hey everyone! My short-term goal is to be a wholesaler in order to earn an active income while learning the ropes of investing.
I enrolled in a real estate agent course as a means of education, creating another stream of income, gaining credibility, and accessing the MLS. However, it came to my attention that there may be a conflict of interest in being a wholesaler and real estate agent, especially regarding marketing.
Does anyone have some insight they could shed on this? Anyone out there doing both?
Thanks in advance and please connect!

@Sarah Castor getting your RE license will help you get started and get a better understanding of the RE Law. Nope, you can not wholesale with an active license in most states and as an license, all your transaction goes over your affiliated brokerage and BIC.
a lot of people think that Wholesaling is an easy start in the RE industry but I think it's the opposite. Much easier is to get a license to work for a flipper or broker get experience and the funding ready and house hack. Wishing you an amazing start to your real estate career!
