I am wondering if getting my real estate license now would be a good move?

Yes it would definitely be a good idea.
It is a good starting point to learn about the real estate industry.
Possibly. You need to weigh how much money you'll save on commissions against how much it will cost you to: get your license, purchase your supplies (signs, office equipment, etc.), keep your designations & required memberships, etc.

Believe it or not, there's still money to be made in real estate. Unfortunately, you just have to work a lot harder with smaller deals to make up the money that you could have made by selling larger, more valuable homes. Foreclosures are everywhere and you can capitalize on them by learning how to do short sales or bpo's.
