Wholesaling vs RE agent

[Gary Dubovick]

Heyy everyone!!

After reading mutable posts about how getting your RE license will help in any area of RE you get into, I decided to invest the time and money to get my NY RE license. Before this decision I wanted to start out wholesaling and doing fix-and-flips in order to build up some cash and then buy and hold multifamily rental properties. After reading a different post and some thought on the topic, it dawned on me that wholesaling and earning commission as a RE agent is nearly the same thing, is it not? You are bringing a buyer and seller together and earning money on it. I was only introduced to this industry about a month ago, so I know others have thought of this before. Anyone contest or agree with this? Thoughts?

Thanks and Happy Holidays to all!!!
