I work with La Rosa Realty they are based out of Celebration, Fl. They also have satellite offices throughout the state. I was with a big name brokerage but I just felt like a another number. I switched over to La Rosa last year and I don’t regret it. They have great trainings and my manager has always been available to answer my questions. Let me know if you have any questions regarding fees or anything else.

@Richard Davis Why are you looking to work for a flat fee place? That limits what you can make big time if you decide to use your license actively. As a licensed broker in the Chicago suburbs, I like working for a smaller brokerage that doesn't kill me with splits and fees, but still allows me to get full commissions. Five years ago I never would have thought that I would be working full time as a broker. You never know what the future may bring!
Are you thinking of becoming an investor friendly realtor? Are you planning to use the license actively? What are your goals with the license?

I agree with @John Warren - you never what the future holds. I work for an amazing brokerage - my fees are almost non-exsistent, only a very small (under $100) transaction fee, and I get stock in my company! I could not be happier.

Thank you all for replying. I'm looking to break into investing as a BRRRR investor. My wife and I would be working as a team and we are both considering getting our licenses. At least one of us would be an active agent also along with using the access to the MLS for finding our own deals. Thank you all for the advice!!
