@Devan Mcclish congrats, and thank you for the details.

@Bryan Ratcliff thank you! That is definitely some useful information. 

@Mike Nickles

Mainly looking for access to get real time comps and market data for my target markets. Im going to start studying to get licensed, because I see all of the great advantages of having that title under your belt. I have built up a pretty solid pipeline of cash investors, while they would prefer the off market deals. If I could bring them solid leads from the MLS, that would only be a plus. As I mentioned in previous post, it would also be beneficial, because often times I can not covert leads generated from my direct mail campaigns into solid wholesale deals, but with the license I could list them. So, I'll be looking to get my license at the top of the year.

Thanks for commenting. Do you have any pointers regarding the test that may be helpful? Anything will be appreciated. 

Welcome @Ron Manson I'm sure with your experience and know-how, BP will only be icing on the cake. Good luck!

@Brendan D. good luck! I'm going to start doing the same! 

@Vishal Gadhia  I'm really starting to lean towards that option. 

@John Warren I appreciate your two cents. I think I'm going to make that move at the top of the year. I know it will pay for itself. I'm thinking I should start looking for some investor friendly brokerages where I can hang my license. I plan to use the license mainly for personal investing purposes. But, I would not mind listing properties that don't fit my investing criteria. 

Thank you guys!!

@Chris Clanton thanks for commenting. Here in Illinois you can sign on to be an assistant to a agent, which is completely legal. I use those two sources also, but the MLS has more real time data.

@Brendan D. that is actually what I'm leaning towards doing. I have been done a lot of research here on the site, and the good of being licensed seem to out weigh the bad, and like you mentioned, it could add that extra stream of income from the leads I have that I can't convert for wholesale profit. 

@Bryan Colton I've done some of that also, but I want access to roam the MLS as I please and pull data.

I thank you both for commenting.
