Getting a CA broker's license with minimal agent experience?

Terry Benedict

Posted

I'm in California, and I self-manage my own rental properties.  I also independently manage properties for family members.  I have my agent's license, but I haven't hung it with any broker yet.  As far as I can tell, that's not so kosher...  My family members want me to continue managing for them, but I want to be able to do it legitimately.  The way I'd like to do this is by getting my own broker's license, which requires 2 years full time experience under a broker.  The sticking point for me to hang my license somewhere is that I'm independently acting as a landlord and PM.  And also, to be honest, my desire to act as an agent doing purchases/sales is pretty low.  I'm starting to look into brokerages like eXp Realty that might not require a certain number of transactions per year, but just having time under a broker might not be enough to meet requirements.  Does anyone have any advice/suggestions?
