Where to hang license as a part time investor?
I recently passed the real estate exam and am looking for recommendations on where to hang my license as a part time agent. I only plan on being an agent for properties I am investing in myself so probably won't have more than 1-2 deals per year. Given that, I would prefer a broker that is part time friendly and does not require any meetings, time commitments, etc. and only gets involved when it comes to helping with the paperwork. I'm leaning towards paying higher monthly fees and a 100% commissions split, but could be open depending on the other benefits.
For this case does it make sense to go with a smaller boutique firm in Chicago that will be hands off, or go with one of the large "virtual" brokers? Thanks!
