Bigger picture question!

Hello! Does being a real estate agent give you exponential advantages while investing in real estate in general? I’m still in the learning process of what avenue of investing I want to venture down, and about a year ago I signed up for a course to become a realtor but then backed out as it wasn’t the right time to devote that kind of studying. I could be there now, and now that investing in real estate has become more feasible, I’m wondering if I should also take the plunge to become a realtor. I don’t want to limit myself to any investment endeavor if it’s a good fit, but also don’t want to put the time and effort into becoming a real estate agent if there isn't a decent list of pros to doing so while investing. Thanks in advance for your advice! God bless! I’m in the valley in Arizona if that matters at all!

Hey @Mindy Rosscup! Welcome to the BP Forum! I'd direct you to this posting, which seems to cover the same type of question: Having a real estate agent VS being your own real estate agent?
