As the title suggests, I would like to know how obtaining a real estate license helps a real estate investor.

I have start obtaining my real estate license and was approached by one of the "Gurus" to join them.

Additionally, the sale/foreclosure/preforeclosure info you can also obtain on these sites is unreliable at best.

We have been involved in a number of transactions that involved subdivisions where the client essentially only obtained/filed the subdivision map and did/made absolutely no building or improvements and the 1031 Exchanges were disqualified under audit. 

There may also be issues depending on the financing you are obtaining for rehab.

The seller agreed, with the understanding that without the buyer obtaining a new loan he would not have the financial means to pay off his existing first loan in the amount of $157,000.

It is better to attempt for a repair credit versus assuming upfront answer is no.I would agree that you need to obtain repair estimate immediately.Remember you make money when you purchase a property.

The 3.5% must have been using the house hack method to obtain properties. 

How do I obtain a loan for a flip, that includes the rehab costs when at the same time I am still paying of my mortgage?
