Is Real estate license Needed

[Nicky Reef]

I'm a new wholesaler, should I get my real estate license ? Would it help with finding homes and doing rentals down the road? Do most investors also have real estate license?

There has been a lot of discussion regarding this topic. The biggest advantage I see in getting the license has been the increased exposure to real estate and being closer to deals on a daily basis. You meet a lot of great industry professionals and learn a ton by proxy. 

I am not a wholesaler, but I don't see how having access to the MLS would be much of an advantage. Most properties that hit the MLS do not offer the type of margin that wholesalers are looking for.
