15: In this episode, Neil Clements explores a question a lot of real estate investors ask: Should you get your real estate license?

Neil earns over 90% of his income from real estate investing, not brokering, yet he still chooses to keep his license active. Why? In this deep dive, Neil walks us through the surprising ways a license gives him major advantages in his land investing business, especially in a non-disclosure state like Texas.

He also talks about how being licensed gives him early insights into market trends (like the current land slowdown of 2025), allows him to monetize deals even when he can’t buy, and how he gets paid on both sides of a transaction. But it's not all sunshine—there are serious downsides too, and Neil shares those as well.

If you're a land investor, real estate investor, or even thinking about getting into the game, this episode will help you decide whether getting licensed is worth it for you.
