to be honest, i would just not tell them what your after.. i have been scouting out brokers since i just passed my state exam here in Florida and i have found that many agents in the office are only part time or still have their license at the office, but after a few months found no success and had to get another job in hopes of coming back and never did.. so many agents according to the brokers ive talked to had many agents with 0 sales for the entire year.. your an independent contractor to them, they cant force you to bring them business.. they make money no matter what way you find houses using their office...

On that note, some may see home prices as too rich, may be be moving in a few years, or in a cyclical job (oil, some types of construction, etc), so they don't take the plunge on a purchase...Best of luck!

Everything else is a job to me.

My schedule allows me to have Fridays off and I'm using that time to maximize my learning through BP.

They will be hiring 1200 jobs.

My spouse could be an employee (form W-2), a parter (form 1065), or we could classify it as a "qualified joint venture" where we file two separate Schedule C's for the same business.  

My plan is to BRRR after the 3 years at school left and invest in one or two houses a year by working full time job as a civil engineer and invest in apartments.

Get a job.

But, even though I own another home besides this one, make a mid-six figure income and have excellent job security (cybersecurity), and a DTI ratio of 13% - I can't qualify because my FICO score (612) is too low.

Personally i'm looking for buy and hold opportunities but i work a full time job and know i couldn't do it on my own.
