I initially got mine just to have access to the MLS as an investor, but have also enjoyed helping my friends and family find their houses.  

I did it initially and I'm still here, just doing it on my own now.Here are some tips for when I started and do note that I'm not some massive success story of here's how I make millions as an agent, but how I've made a good sustainable business out of it. 1.

@Jonathan GreeneWhat are some smart questions you can ask a realtor during an initial call to gauge their experience working with investors?

The initial plan would be to purchase a small multifamily home to house hack in a market where my partners & I could dive into fix and flip as well. 

I've heard of Cozy a few times during initial research but haven't had to look into it.

Initially, the back unit will be the Owners' home and the front unit will be a 5 bedroom 3.5 bath Air BnB or short term rental in compliance with City zoning for transient stay rentals.

You will not be able to plead ignorance of the statutes or that, "so & so" told me it was okay to do it this way.You can choose to do it whatever way you like and hope you won't get caught. 

I suggest setting some initial criteria, looking at census data, RE trends, and speaking with many people that have invested in the locations you are interested in.

It’s a great return on initial investment but there is opportunity costs now. - Vegas real estate market is hot.

Purchase price: $34,000 Cash invested: $24,000 Sale price: $100,000 Bought a home initially to fix and rent.
