when buying and flipping and buying and renting out what are the pros and cons to having your real estate licence is it something you must have ?

Hi All,  I've just started my education on real estate investment after years of putting it off.  Something finally triggered in my head that made me focus 100% on this so now I'm hungry for knowledge.  I've been look...

Some meetings will cost $5 some $25, even better get a membership for a year as you are learning the ropes.If you are managing your own units, you don't need a RE licence. 

You need to clarify if you are talking a in-law suite or a separate basement apartment.In law suits do not have the same licencing requirements as a separate apartment.

Do anyone know if I can get a licence or what can I do about this issue I really want to make real estate my career I am so good at communication and sales it's just this one thing that's stopping me can anyone help please and thank you. 

I just recently got my real estate licences and wanting to learn all aspects of the industry.

Yes, if you want to find properties and resell them, the safest thing is to become a licenced Realtor.It may not be the most profitable though.  

If new investors were required to be licenced to be landlords 99% of the tenant related questions on these forums would disappear.

They need to be in both ends of the business to convince me they understand the business.An agents licence with a commitment to investing.

Do you already have your licence?
