Best License to get
What is the best RE investment degree/license/document/title to get or earn?
E.G Property Manager - or - Real Estate agent or - Mortgage Broker
I'm looking to get involved in getting a "title" but just not sure which one would benefit me better as far as Real Estate Investing goes.
Thanks guys.

Best title for real estate investor = OWNER.
I went the JD/CPA route and got the RE license in my spare time. The RE license gives me access to mls. In my opinion, the titles that are most valuable are the ones that exclude others (let you do something others can not).. Many of the title/designations are just to prove you took classes or learned something. I think you can learn those things without the designation/title and be just as valuable as well as avoiding the cost to purchase the designation (or education for the designation).
