New York real estate license
Good morning everyone. I hope you all have a great Sunday.
I am considering getting my real estate license and was hoping to get some feedback from the community. First, my biggest challenge is that I dont know a broker to sponsor me. It doesn't seem like the type of thing where I can just call one up and say "Hey. Wana sponsor me" lol
I am also wondering what people's opinions are on if it is worth it or not. A few hundred for the application, hundred for the class, the time to do it all and then renewal every other year. I should add that I currently work a full time job not in real estate and have some rental property but I want to be able to expand my rentals and do real estate full time as soon as possible.
Thank you in advance.
