Broker to Hold Investor Real Estate License

[Beth Turner]

Morning Everyone! I am an out-of-state investor looking to get my Real Estate License purely for running comps and getting market insights. I will not be submitting any offers or any actual real estate transactions. Are there any brokers in the Kansas City area who holds licenses for other investors like this? I have been told it would cost about $500 - 700 a year to maintain the license and MLS access, though it sounds like it varies depending on broker. Just trying to see if this is feasible and cost effective. Appreciate everyone's time in advance!
