Hi,I wanted to connect with an agent in the plainfield area.  I am from out of town and will be in plainfield Aug6-9.  I would like to look at some cashflow properties, and potentially buy some rentals in plainfield, ...

Tell him Gino referred you.We also use Chris Howe from Pinnacle Bank for Agency financing.

You can get a textbook for agents taking the exam for about $20, that has the basics you need to know.I think what you can expect is a bunch of people to network with.Trick is, who should you work with and who should you believe?

The housing market here in Queen Creek is booming and very cheap for the area I am interstesting in networking with other agents and investors I can help with my knowledge and also I can do listing for agents.

I joined about two months ago as a full-time agent and it didn't take long to get started.eXp is a virtual, cloud-based brokerage so it has the flexibility that a completely remote position offers which makes it an attractive choice for agents who aren’t sure exactly how many hours they will log this week or where they will be when they log them.

@Brendan Novisky I maintain my broker's license mainly for the same purpose as what you intend to do with yours, as well as for agents like me to have a place to hang their own license - I operate in a similar fashion as the ones mentioned by @John Horner.

My point was targeted at new investors looking for agent representation.

Speaking to the "new model"-ness.In some cases it offers an opportunity for agents to cash in on having been in the business for a long time by successfully bringing a large collection of earners into the fold and collecting dividends as they close business.While @Matt Millard is describing what it ends up looking like, @Joel Owens accurately captures the essence of the situation in general.

On top of that it's heavily fragmented and being threatened on several fronts by disrupters and other external forces.Glenn Sanford's goal was to redesign the model in the cloud-based era to minimize overhead costs (brick & mortar, redundant staffing, etc) while improving services & compensation  to provide a value proposition for agents that is so strong it would be "irresponsible" (his words) to hang your license anywhere else.
