Starting out

[Trailson Moore]

Hello BP,

So my wife and I are thinking of getting our agents license here in Central Texas. Well, I am thinking, she has decided to go forward with it. As far as I understand the process, to get your license after passing the required classes and exams, you need to be sponsored by a broker. Can someone help me understand how that works? What is the process? Are there fees involved? Do you then work for that broker as an agent?

After actually becoming licensed, where do you go from there? Do you have to join a team, like, Century 21, Remax, Keller Williams, etc.? Or do you go at it on your own? What are the every month fees associated with just being a realtor?

The reason for one or both of us to get our license is to supplement our investing. We are new to both areas as I'm sure you can tell.

I'm sure each state is a little different with all of this. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks, 

Trailson
