Should i become a realtor to start my property rental career?

[Loan Tran]

Hi everyone!;) Y’all May laugh at me when reading this, but my fortune teller told me at my last visit that real estate is my calling and I should seriously consider it!;) I know, y’all are prolly rolling your eyes and fall off your chair laughing by now😂 But that was like 8 months ago, and since then, I’ve ran into random people at parties, work and the most random places....everyone I met whispered into my ears, ‘ real estate’, ‘rental property’, ‘Just Do it (actually I think this was a NiKE commercial lol)! But the point is, I’ve been thinking hard about this topic lately and been reading lots of bIgpockets forum posts and blogs and even listening to a book by Brandon Turner on Rental property! This morning, I woke up and decided to look up requirements to become a realtor agent! Is this a good idea if I want to start my rental property investment!? Bc my mentor (yes, I even found myself a successful mentor in the real estate business😂) said this is a good way to learn the in and the out of the business! So, any problem with me taking online realtor classes for my pre-exam requirement!? Thanks in advance and I’m setting of goal of buying my 1st property by feb 2019! (I work better with an end goal and deadline!😂) ! Cheers!
