Investor and Newly Licensed Agent - Side Hustle??

Hi All,

I will make this quick.

I am an investor but recently attained my Alabama agent license. The initial thought behind this was that 1.) I can save money on my deals by getting the commission and 2.) can view more deals since I can conveniently schedule showings for myself instead of involving someone else.

I currently work a remote job where I have some spare hours during the week and was considering marketing myself as a real estate agent to buy/sell houses for others. Do you guys think this is attainable as a small gig on the side or does this need someone to devote full attention to be truly successful. I do not know how much work would be involved initially but wanted to see if anyone, in a similar situation, has made this work and how. Thanks for any input!

-Mack
