Becoming an Agent to decrease purchase costs?

[Craig Moore]

Hi BP,

I'm hoping you all can help me challenge my thinking here: Is it wise to obtain my real estate salesperson license in order to save money on the back-end by not having to go through another sales agent when purchasing property? Theoretically, the fee could be saved if I did all of my purchases through myself, as an agent representing myself, right? Do I have that understood correctly?
