New to Raleigh and Real Estate
Hi Everyone,
I'm new to the real estate industry as a whole, as in I don't know about real estate markets or what to look for. I'm interested in starting with wholesaling and have aspirations to become a buy and hold investor in the future. In order to get more educated, I'm looking into taking classes to become a real estate broker +/- become licensed. Does anyone have a particular RE school they would recommend and are there advantages to being licensed when it comes to wholesaling or buying fix/flip properties. Thanks!
