I am actually surprised at the answers to this question. When I read the question i though to myself "prepare to be screwed by lead guys" but i agree with what everyone else is saying in this thread. Opening up a brokerage and buying leads sounds easy until you waste all your mopney and have nothing to show for it. There is also alot of other factors to consider. I would say go work at another brokerage shop that is successful and learn what they do. You wouldn't be the first guy to lose their shirt trying to open an iso shop in this industry.
