Broker License

[Orlando Rodriguez]

Hello and Good Sunday Morning:

I have a question and I have already read the answers to this particular question, so bare with me!!

I am in the business of buying and selling Notes (Commercial and Residential) also Non Performing Notes through Banks and Credit Unions.  

If I find an Owner Financed Note Holder that is willing to sell his/her Note and I submit the deal to an Investor/Cash Buyer and this Buyer purchases the Note and pays me a Finders Fee, do I need a Real Estate Brokers License for these kinds of transactions not only here in California but all 50 States??

There seems to be 2 different answers to this question!  Yes I do need a Brokers License and No I don't need a Brokers License!!  

Please let me know!  I am a bit baffled by this!!
