To Become A Licensed Agent Before Becoming An Investor?

[Chelsea Huebner]

Hi Everyone,

I am currently working on getting myself financially ready to become a real estate investor. I have started gathering the BP books so I know what I'll be getting myself into.

From different things I have read, it sounds like being a licensed real estate agent is very beneficial. Would you recommend it before I have purchased my first investment?

My goal is to be a full time investor and possibly a licensed agent as well. For now though, I'm keeping my day job and just wanting the best benefits for investing.

Any advise is greatly appreciated. Also, if you recommend being a licensed agent, do you have any suggestions for online schools for Ohio?

Thanks so much!
