If you were starting from scratch and could get an RE license anywhere, which state would you prefer to get one in, and why? Just found out that New York currently has no real estate license reciprocity agreements with any other state, and so that's not an option I'm considering anymore. Eager to hear your thought process about where you would pick!

Anywhere with a strong population growth and job opportunities .. so I think I'd go Texas, Florida, or North Carolina. PA is pretty great too. It has reciprocity agreements with Arkansas, Georgia, Louisiana, Maryland, and Massachusetts so that covers a lot of states at once.

why growth? wouldn’t u make more in HCOL areas even if growth is negative

I would do research on actually selling properties. The recent changes to the laws for sellers and buyers has changed the market. Also, homes are sitting on the market longer, interest rates are high, and economy is not so good.

I wouldn’t. You have to plan on not making money for a few years. Make sure you have cash reserves for those very lean months/years.

I feel like I would get it in the state that I am living in or will be living in for a long time. I live in Texas and got my RE license here, I don't see a reason to choose another state unless I move.

Additional Posts in The Real Estate Bowl

I'm a first time home buyer and got pre qualified back in Jan. Hard pull on credit docked me a few points. I wasn't able to close and now considering another hard pull for a different mortgage company offering better rates.
I'm new to this and this may be a stupid q but I'm looking for input from the bowl on whether to do this hard pull and get pre-qualified with a few more mortgage companies. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you

I recently bought my 1st home in TX. I want to get into real estate and eventually own/rent out multiple homes. Are there any good recommendations/tips on books/articles/websites that others have used to get started?

I've read about HELOC and cash out refinance to get a 2nd home but articles are so scattered that it gets confusing which is better in terms of tax benefits and immediate costs, etc. Anything others have found helpful that summarized how to get started would be great!

If someone could please help clarify - how do I add other people on the onset on buying a property? This is a new build, buying directly from the builder.
