@Kiel Hicks  forget wholesaling take class and get a RE license that is a career you can actually have for your lifetime.. kind of like playing golf.Go to your top brokerages and intern with a top agent you will learn more there than at any reia ...

If I were him, and I was about to let this go for $300k, I would have been contacting all the brokerages that work that area and getting mass emails out to them before I let it go that cheaply.

I received my CA real estate sales person license in April and currently hang my license at a brokerage.

Hi,I'm a real estate investor.I just passed my real estate exam and I would like to find a broker so that I can hang my shingle and get access to the MLS and the key fobs to view properties.I found ReEbroker.com to hang my shingle (open to other brokerages) and would like to understand the advantages of paying the NAR and CAR and Local real estate association fees vs. just signing up with the MLS through my local real estate association. 

You don't need a brokerage license to send information on deals to your contacts. 

Do you work for a brokerage with a focus on investors?

For brokerage activities  IE brokering others money.. 

To list on the MLS a brokerage needs a listing agreement with the seller.

And you can always change brokerages

They will be more eager to work with you, and would have less stringent requirements.You might be able to negotiate a flat deal split instead of the typical 50/50 split.Do you have any desire to own a brokerage?
