Obtaining a Realtors License
Hello All,
I'm making my way into the investing part of the real estate world but I was thinking about getting my real estate license to give me some added benefits of accessibility to resources. However, I was under the assumption that you needed to associate yourself with a broker once you got licensed. This is not necessarily something that I want to do, I just want to have my license to gain access to the MLS, be able to show myself properties, be able to absorb commissions on a deal etc. If any agents in Maryland could give me some insight in this, I'd be very appreciative.
Thanks in advance!

I've never regretted having my brokers license but there were many times before i got it I wished I had it. Don't really see any negatives to doing it.
