It's not so hard to get the license. Not more than 6 hours of work. Then it costs $400 one-time and then around $800/year franchise tax and $100 per year for the foreign qualification, registered agent $50/year, plus the cost of the surety bond. (I may be a bit off, but not by much....) I should hope that a good broker has a net worth of at least $50,000, between their car and their home.
