Tail wagging dog to do in advance.

I read in Money Magazine that one of the biggest mistakes investors make it paying the typical fees to investment brokers, so I am looking to get out of that but don't want to lose my tail either.

I arrived at the tail end of an improperly managed million dollar renovation.  

I'm quite familiar with Bryson City and Lake Fontana...spent many days flying around Tail of the Dragon over at Deals Gap:)    Beautiful country and proximity to Atlanta makes it a high traffic VR area.  

I would agree that if your only reasoning is to gain MLS access than its probably not worth it but as a current wholesaler I would think you could expand your business with your license and not necessarily have to get into representing buyers and seller aside from your investors, which includes the resell side commissions for your investors who could use you for the sales on the tail end of their flips projects along with purchasing the deals you find for them on the front end.

FYI, this is whole tailing.

I have plans and ambitions to work my tail off and get as far as I possibly can in this business. 

@Willie WebbI agree with Cape Coral being better on the tail end.

I totally agree with you, is that it's all in your mind.All you need to do is link up with seasoned individuals that already own bigger deals, bring value to the table and ride their coat tails to put your mind at ease.  

As of right now im just networking as much as possible in the area trying to find potential partners and working my tail off to make more money that way.
