Using Your License to Invest/Work with Investors

[Felipe Munoz]

Repost: Think I posted in wrong group previously. Sorry if you've read it already. I've been inactive when it comes to real estate and visiting Bigger Pockets for a number of years. Extreme brief background: Got licensed in '08 to become a full time REALTOR. That was kinda bad timing so I went back to working W-2 40hr/week gig and only used RE license to help friends with home purchases including personal residences for my family. I live in Phoenix, AZ (Ahwatukee) and I'm very curious as to how folks on BP with RE licenses use them for their investing ventures. Do any of you wholesale? How do you disclose to sellers that you are licensed and how do you your brokers view wholesaling? What other ways do you use license? I'm sure having access to MLS has to be a huge bonus but how exactly? Are you just throwing out tons of offers for other investors? If so, do you have systems to automate your offer writing? I definitely want to start meeting up with investors actually doing deals to learn as much as I can. At the moment I'm looking to supplement my income. (I like my 40hr gig). I know that was a lot of questions but I look forward hearing some responses and possibly meeting some of you.
