Hello fellow BP'ers. I will be taking my RE brokers (used to be called agents) exam in Wa state soon and was wondering if anyone had a recommendation for a "investor friendly" Managing Broker.

I am getting my license but mainly for access to the MLS, listing properties I don't buy and helping family members out as well.

Looking for a reasonable fee to hang my license with some support. I hold a full-time job and will be using this to help my investing.

I reviewed it @Brandon Turner , but only because you said "pretty please" ;)

@Andrew S. I will be turning 49 in six months so I can definitely feel the big 5-0 looming on the horizon. I am starting to take action toward getting my first flip. I will be flipping to pay off some consumer debt and build some capital. I plan within a couple of years to use both buy and hold and flipping for exit strategies.

Flipping is great but provides no passive cash flow so rentals are in the future for me and I can always use Property Managers if I get tired of dealing directly with every little problem.

I am also developing my long term business plan and gaining a ton of knowledge, I may still work full time until I'm 62 or so.

I live in an area (Seattle area) where cash flow properties and easy flips are nearly nonexistence. Especially at a price point the meets my criteria. I have found the there are places within an hour of my place that do work so I am looking there as well.

Good Luck and go for it !!

I just open it in my browser and then hit the download button and it automatically starts, Works on my Droid.

I'll be there! Also it's "Grilla Bites" in case someone is trying to Map it.

I upgraded to BP Pro recently and got both J.Scott books! I have read the book on flipping houses and have looked through the book on estimating rehab costs. This is the best info I have found to date! Easy reads....like a textbook but at the same time makes you want to keep reading. I know this is money well spent.

Thanks Ben

@Cory T.

Welcome! From another new guy from Seattle area! There is a ton of info on this sight it totally rocks!

Ibrahim,

Thank you for clarifying this. You make some valid points. I will take this info in. There is a lot of conflicting opinions about appearing professional in every aspect versus being more approachable.

I fail to see how naming my business is unimportant. I have been researching, meeting people and trying to determine the needs in my community. I am not looking at wholesaling. I need only a few deals a year right now. I want my business name to portray my professionalism. I need to establish that early on for everything from business cards to a web presence.
