I know i should have done these courses in the beginning of the year, but i was listening to other people who said it's a waste of time to become licensed if i want to mainly wholesale and invest, investors don't deal with agents so why become one, the agents way of thinking about real estate investing is clueless and you will be taught the wrong ways, and other mixed opinions feelings that i received.

Also, as a wholesaler, I need to try to get the property for 3% less than other investors, which makes that 3% even more important.

If I want to read about wholesaling, I don't want to scroll through the Starting Out section to find wholesale posts, I want to read about it in the wholesale section while my mind is geared toward learning about wholesaling and grouping information in my mind about wholesaling.By looking at the post counts, it almost seems like all the other sections should be consolidated into one thread or the Starting Out section should be removed (or even better- fill it with stickies with general FAQs) to force posts into the proper sections.I think that it's almost an option where to put it- I could ask a rehab question in the rehab section, or just put it in the general since anything falls under general.
