Hello I’m New To Real Estate

[Brock Michael]

Hi I’m very to new to the real estate game and I’ve got a few questions, I won’t be getting my first property for atleast 6 months maybe a year. I am 20 years old and first I’m going to move out and get my own place and I’m moving across the US. One of my plans is to buy a duplex property and rent out the other side and live in the other. My question is do I need a real estate license to make a lot of money in real estate? Or can I buy properties and use them as investments without a real estate license? If I don’t need a real estate license for that, what does a real estate license allow to me do exactly. I know it’s probably a stupid question but thanks.
