I am currently completing a major in finance and accounting and  hold a real estate licence but currently not working in the Industry as I own and operate my own pizza business.

MD has a new rule for licencing which is tough to get from what I understand.  

*  Do I need  a licence to manage my properties if I move management to my own LCC in Chicago, Illinois?   

He doesn't have a licence but will be using someone else's to do the work.

Partnering is hard to do because it is usually cheaper to just pay for the needed services, however having both licences and being good at both is a valuable skill set.

start...I couldn't locate you.As @Paul Allen mentioned when your ready to file your taxes with your Schedule C and you have no fictitious business name do not ignore the letters you receive from the FTB and the I.R.S.

I live in Virginia and it seems like how the business gets classified is a big deal, and depending on how we classify it we made need things like a class A contractors licence (which in my opinion we shouldn't need) So I was hoping someone here had a similar issue the have solved already 

I have 4 years of experience in the field, have done work updating a few houses, and am working on becoming licenced.  

Your fictitious name or corp name is totally irrelevant.

I went ahead and got my PB licence, and am working on the post-licensing course to be a full broker.
