Yes you can do a tax search. I'm not in the office or I could look it up.

I got mine as a way to learn more and have access to the mls directly, but as I've gotten more into learning the process I have begun to make it a bigger part of the plan. My work as an agent is what will be directly funding my purchases. That will give me more motivation to continue learning and changing with the market. As investment deals become harder to find I will focus more on residential or study for CCIM. I spent years reading about how RE investing works with the Gary Keller books, Rich dad and many other books, as well as listening to the BP podcasts. It's certainly not necessary to get your license to be an investor but it is good to know an agent. Jay

Welcome to Louisville and BP. As a young guy I would always suggest the duplex/triplex house hack method. If you need any assistance or just want to get a coffee and chat I'm around. I grew up in the highlands and it's always been a great place to meet.

Your military experience could be invaluable in the rental market in that area for sure.
