I'll be taking my exam in 4 weeks, do you think I should hang my license with a broker and if so, how do I go about finding an investor friendly broker? 

I understand space is limited for those who can get in the bay and hack away, I have a buddy who is interested in coming just to meet people and hang out.

With little to no experience in pricing out reno I run a low end estimate of 10k to refinish hard woods, lay floor in bath and kitchen, hang drywall in all 3bed and 1 bath, and paint everything.

I've taken nearly $1 million out of my own pocket for these properties since buying them just to hang onto them. 

Ive been hanging out a little bit and have benefited tremendously from the BP community over the past few weeks.

You do not want this to be drawn out by her hanging on longer than that.

Bc I feel like it’s not right just saying ok thank you for your time and hanging up.

There are a few pros to getting your license including but not limited to:Access to the MLSBeing able to see properties quickly, without needing your agent to tag alongSaving half the commission on the sell side of your dealBut there is the additional costs of continuing education and splits or fees you may pay to hang your license with a brokerage.

Typically speaking, a licensed agent can only pay a referral fee to another licensed agent, and any and all payments of any kind to a realtor must be paid through the broker they hang their license with.

But I have some potential hang ups - Building is OLD, 1900s-1920s ish, agent/landlord has ownded for past 10 yrs and has done minimal upkeep.
