And I don’t think that anyone in this industry who is at a 50-50 split with their broker, or has an endless amount that they would pay into their brokerage every year, year after year, has a particularly good earning arrangement.Last year I started considering starting up my own brokerage, like you’re doing now, and at the same time I investigated cloud based brokerages as I saw they had many advantages over traditional real estate brokerages, and that being a reduced overhead.

Hi, Im new to this Industry and was lucky enough to have successful coworkers around me that have helped me learn the steps to owning my own investment property.

a lot of local events draw to newbies because that's where they can get knowledge, it may be misguided but some industry pros just keep busy and don't network in person like they should.

For what its worth, I've seen an entire industry of folks put up fights with the SEC on arguing that something isn't a security--many of them have since spent a lot more time and 10x more on defense attorneys than if they'd just... acquiesced to regulatory jurisdiction.
