Becoming an agent for own deals only near Philadelphia, PA

[Jocelyn Canfield]

I am probably going to sound naive here, but I have thought about becoming a RE agent so I can handle my own showings and deals. (don't want to lose deals due to slow agent response due to THEIR schedule.) I talked to one brokerage and I simply am not interested in having a job with a boss and sales meetings/quotas. I already have a part time marketing communications business (Self employed so flexible) and part time real estate investing business.

What is the disadvantage to a broker taking on someone like myself for only a handful of deals a year? And would anyone be interested in that relationship?
