Former Realtor looking to only purchase personal investments

[Rhonnie Smith]

I often hear other agents brag that their broker doesn't require them to join the Realtor association. Can anyone share some advice on how I can transition into a company solely for personal investing? That means I can keep my real estate tools (MLS access, contracts, lock box access) without being pressured to produce for my company or maintain Realtor status.

I'm aware of EXP realty but who else is out there? I'm in the state of Virginia.
