@Ned Carey Thank you for your advice!  I will take another look further out from Seattle, to see what I can find.

Hello, everyone!  My name is Harrison Melton.  I am 22 years old, and have finally decided to explore my interest in real estate investing.  I majored in finance at the University of Washington, and work as an Android mobile app developer.  In my free time, I enjoy reading, working out, exploring the outdoors, and exploring Seattle!

My real estate goals for the year are:

  • Build a network of real estate investment professionals
  • Narrow down my interests in specific areas of real estate investment
  • Create a roadmap I can follow toward my first investment

The areas I'm most interested in at the moment are buy-and-hold rental properties (probably out of state, since I cannot afford the Seattle area) and flipping.  These may change, though!  I would love to meet and network with professionals in other areas of real estate investment, to find out if there are other types of investing I might like better.

Thanks for taking the time to read my introduction.  Please feel free to message me, if you want to talk!

@Aaron B Lee Thank you for your response!  In Washington, we have “brokers” and “managing brokers” as the titles rather than “agent” and “broker.”  I believe the process is the same as how you’ve described it, just with those different titles.

Hello, all!

I am new here, and considering getting my real estate broker license for Washington State.  After reading about the requirements for earning this license, I'm still a little confused about the requirement to be sponsored by a licensed designated broker.

If I am working alone, not joining a firm, does that mean I need to form a legal entity and then file to endorse myself as the firm's designated broker?

Thank you for any help you may have to offer!
