Quite the dilemma!

I've been in the same dilemma with my condo rental. 

For years, I knew that I did not want to stay in the Northeast but up until now I haven't felt like I was ready or had a good excuse to take the plunge and move.I have been reducing the amount of "stuff" in my life for years to the point where I can now fit everything that I own in (or on) my 2011 Honda Fit.I have paid off all of my debt, have over 6 months of my current spending in cash, and have a current NW around $282k with $120k of that in a taxable account.I have a stable job as a Data Analyst that I have been working remote with since the pandemic hit.I am single with no children or pets (but do have 2 small house plants)I love walking, cycling, mountain biking, snowboarding, kayaking, hiking... basically all things active and outdoors.I like to reduce the amount of my personal consumption and focus on the important things in life such as my relationships, health, and finances.I am that guy in the neighborhood that always walks or bikes everywhere although I have a great car parked in the driveway.Anyway, a good friend of mine asked what I thought about moving out west with him.

Western University opened up in 2011 invited a large amount of medical students and other health services. the growth started a bit slow but seeing the success of the university and its efforts to expand investors are flocking this town.There are many more things going on in more towns but this post has gotten too long and I will leave the rest for another post.

The other dilemma I came across is that I've been reading that you must "hang" your real-estate licensee with a brokerage and I don't plan to work for anyone at the time being and would like to have it for my own personal use without being apart of a company?

It is a dilemma and service plans are not cheap.

@Tony Hershiser60-70 hours /week working for someone else is problematic, not just for real estate investing but I would imagine for your health and happiness.

In my county , the health dept has records showing the location of the tank and drain fields / dry wells . 

What are good health insurance for self employed realtors

I kept taking damage to my health bar, which was my bank account and I needed a solution.
