BP, A friend of mine is looking to sell his house in Lithia Springs, GA.

The cost was $29 for a one time purchase and was very user friendly and well organized.

Are there certain states that are very real estate tax-friendly?

It's booming here in Vegas, and they are starting to make it tourist friendly as well.

It seems to me they are not very owner/landlord friendly when it comes times to help out.

I've suggested them to several friends and family.

The owner is a friend of the family and just doesn't want it anymore and doesn't care to make a profit. they are very well off anyway. 

Work hard, take on additional work, live a conservative life style, change your habits and circle of friends, save money and concentrate on getting your credit up into the high 700s.To be successful you need to modify your life style.

We're new investors, and I've been hearing about all of the benefits of getting my real estate license (mainly MLS access and the ability to make "investor-friendly" offers without annoying agents too much).Here's my question:If I do get my license, would I "need" to start working with a broker or company in order to gain access to the MLS?

My good friend, who has flipped four properties, noticed that I was interested in his projects and suggested that I check out BiggerPockets.
