Real Estate License Negatively Affect Getting an FHA Loan??

[Casey Blakely]

Hello all. I've been seriously thinking about getting my Real Estate License first in Illinois, and then in New York (I'll be moving for a few years). I'll be settling back in Illinois after a few years in New York, and when I do come back, I would like to buy my first owner occupied investment property.

The questions is would my having a Real Estate License negatively affect me being approved for an FHA loan? Are there any legal stipulations there? I don't remember reading that there were, but I just wanted to make sure.

Thank you to anyone who can share some insight on this!
