They either didn't know, or wouldn't share, so I let the license go.However, second time, I know my fields and what needs to be done, so my license helps with their technology r.e. agents have access to, along with when I sell my own properties, I can also get a commission or not.If I was doing just buy/hold, I would definitely not run to get my license, r.e. fees are high.Get some education, and figure out what niche you want to do, focus on that until you have master it, then you can branch out to other avenues.Hope this helps!

Based on what is posted in the Commission disciplinary actions, most of their enforcement time is spent on the property management field.

Hello Seth,I have a couple of attorneys that work in this field.

Otherwise if you finish college and get a job in the field of your degree, they will count that as your 2 years of being on the job.

I'm in Portland Oregon and would love to network and learn from other investors in the field.

And i know you're right about lenders wanting 2 years worth of income history because that's what i've been told numerous times over the last couple of weeks.

Its not my field of expertise so I can't give the best advice. 

What issues do you face in the field? 

I don't know a lot about this field but I've been learning through reading and forums like this. 

Could you please share your top ideas on how you thread that needle between a sustainable business and helping out your numerous partners(ie tenants)?
