Real estate license

[Blake Alvey]

As a 16 year old, I have most of my life ahead of me and a lot of time to learn and decide how I want to take my first steps into real estate, but more and more I wonder whether getting a real estate license is the path I should take or not. I feel I could be a great real estate agent and it would be a good way to make money until I started investing but if I could find a way into real estate before I’m 18 ( unlikely but not impossible ) then I think it would be more of a hinderance and something I’d have to schedule around, but then again 2 years of struggle could give me access to mls listings for the rest of my life. Is a real estate license worth it?
