Should I go with another broker?

[Cody Smith]

Hello BP, thank you for reading my post! I am currently working on completing my RE prerequisite course for GA and plan to complete the exam by the end of May. I have an agent in my area that I have purchased a couple of properties with, and he introduced me to his broker prior to me beginning the licensing process. He is a high producing agent in the area, and a great potential mentor to help me get started as an agent (his personal offer). After having these interactions/meetings, I feel by default I am going to work for that brokerage. After doing some thinking, I don’t feel comfortable trusting that this brokerage will be the best fit for me without exploring my other options to be sure. I would hate to affect my career as an agent by not choosing the best brokerage for me. If I did go somewhere else, however, I would lose that potential mentorship by the agent I have a relationship with. Any advice? Am I thinking about this incorrectly? Thank you!
