In Ohio at least our licensee exams are all computerized, so if you have test anxiety, it helps you practice being in that state-of-mind and relieves you of some of that undue stress.

I would think being in an environment that is focused on the investment side opposed to the sales side would be more beneficial for the licensee to join.

I have to write a paper listing various new laws that affect Real Estate Investing for example The Law passed that requires one to have a License to be able to discuss Financing, which has the effect of making note creation without a mortgage licensee illegalCan anyone help me out with a few topics of various laws since the recession that have hampered or changed how RE Investing is done?

"It is unlawful for any licensee to offer,promise, allow, give or pay, directly orindirectly, any part or share of his or hercommission, compensation or finder’sfee to any person who is not a real estatelicensee, in consideration for services.76No broker-salesperson or salespersonmay accept compensation from, or paycompensation to, any person other than abroker (or owner-developer) with whomhe or she is licensed at the time of thetransaction.77"Look at page 18 here:http://www.state.nv.us/publications/law-reference/Ch%20III.pdf

As a licensee, you really can't have your cake and eat it too...Either A) you are offering your services as seller's listing agent;or B) you represent someone else, possibly an entity of which you are a part, and which is fully disclosed, as a buyer's agent; or C) you are acting as an individual negotiating a deal with an unrepresented seller, fully disclosing the fact you are a licensee.

Is it common for a brokerage firm to reject a licensee who wants to hang his or her license there?

I could not do this if I wasn't a licensee.  

Husband and wife teams work so much better when both hold a license, when one doesn't and they get involved in the same transaction, fee or not, you can get into situations of co-brokering, the unauthorized practice of a licensee, undisclosed commissions, illegal payments to a non-licensed person, termination of his errors and omissions insurance  coverage on a transaction, and if you net out a profit without disclosure, illegal advertising, HUD settlement violations at which point you'll effect his broker's position as well.

The good news is more investing courses are being offered as continuing education for licensees and a small dent is being made..The part of my being all crabby patty would be saved for the investors that don't set them straight.

We disclose such things here.You're getting a sales pitch and any licensee in the country is NOT in Tucson Az, nor are state RE commissions viewing wholesaling in the same light as AZ may.
