Hell, it's worth it for the MLS access alone.I personally think having a license is a valuable tool for your investing, as you said just for the MLS access alone.To the question about the unlicensed activity I don't really think that having a license helps with any of that unless someone says "Hey you need a license to do that" and you say "But I do" and they drop it.If the dig and you use the "I have a license" as a defense I think you are in MUCH worse shape!  

I decided to join BiggerPockets because I saw it as a valuable tool to help take my real estate investing career to the next level.

:-)  This is invaluable information from those that have been in my shoes, so I appreciate it very much.  

I recently found a property that will cash flow at close to 10% Cap but I think the prospect of the property appreciating in value isn't great.  

Neither property will ever gain much in value.

There is a lot if networking available and invaluable advice as well.

Getting a good tenant reminds me of a term we use for buying high quality tools: "pay for quality and you only cry once; buy cheap and you'll cry a lot."  

Thank you all for all of the invaluable information you have already shared with me and I very much look forward to being an active BP member and successful buy and hold investor.

Just another tool for your tookboxes. 

You or your spouse may even choose to become a real estate agent yourself to gain access to the incredible tools that agents have.
