Can you wholesale in IL without a brokers license?

[Andrii Sazhnev]

Hey, I am interested in starting wholesaling in IL and found out that there is a law "preventing" wholesalers from doing business without a broker's license. Now I did some research and everyone has their  explanations for what the law means. Some say the wholesaler needs a broker's license to do wholesale more than 1 deal every 12 months, and there is no way around it, and others say you can work with a licensed broker, and have them represent you, the wholesaler, in every deal you do. Please shed some light on this topic, especially if you currently are wholesaling in Illinois. Any help would be much appreciated!
