The biggest advantage I see in getting the license has been the increased exposure to real estate and being closer to deals on a daily basis.

Your deal source can't also be your pre-acquisitions advisor and your property manager without you getting the fuzzy end of that particular lollipop.Build an independent local network - One of the biggest mistakes many overseas investors make is relying solely on their local hired team for feedback.

Your biggest issue will be your first couple years.

The biggest advertised advantage (for some people) is they are not active real estate investors.

The biggest advantage would be lowering their monthly fee by having 2 properties under management with them.
