Thus, my other two options would be to Double Close or get licensed.These are the Pros and Cons of each I can fathom at this time.Pros on obtaining my license as a Realtor: I can Wholesale with less worriesI can do more than just Wholesaling, I can actually be a Realtor for home buyers and investorsI’ll be employed at an actual job which means I can start repairing my own credit (aka paying off my Student Loan)Cons on obtaining my license as a Realtor: If I do any Wholesaling, it maybe legal but it will not be ethical under the guidelines of what it means to be a Realtor.It will cost me around $3K per year to upkeep my Realtor license and business status in a very competitive market for Realtors (I know it's competitive because my boyfriend and I just bailed out a Realtor friend of ours by donating to him as well as setting up a GoFundMe donation page to prevent him from hitting absolute rock bottom), and may cost me $3K to $5K to get started.It may take me longer than 3 months just to learn and memorize enough to pass a test, as I am very knowledgeable in real world activities but lack in test taking skills due to my Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD).Pros on Double Closing: I get to take away however much I think I can literally get away with in mark-up value assuming the market can bear it.I can gain experience in closing deals so I can start moving up to house flipping.It’s an easy way to avoid getting a license.Cons on Double Closing: It’s risky, because if I can’t close the deal I may end up having to buy the property and/or lose my earnest money I put down.It takes more upfront funding to get started, as I will have to pay for closing costs twice.Legally speaking, Double Closing is a liability because it is more like selling the property which means you are held responsible for that property, rather than selling the contract (to my understanding, I could be wrong about this interpretation).These are the Pros and Cons I could think of, please chime-in with your own as well as give me any advice.
