This is a difficult question to answer based on the sources we have available, Kralrick - none of which, again, are contemporary to what happened. The Islamic narrative tells us that Muhammad started his career at the same time he was informed that he was a messenger, or Prophet.
The issue surrounding him being the last Prophet of God is a bit different, though. It wasn't one of the earliest Suras which declared Muhammad to be the last of the Prophets - Khātam al-Nabiyyīn. He is described as the "Seal of the Prophets" in the Qur'an in a Sura that is thought to be revealed later in his career. There is a definite discussion to be had over whether it was always intended that he would be the last.
If this is an area you are particularly interested in, I can't recommend David Power's Muhammad is Not the Father of Any of Your Men: The Making of the Last Prophet highly enough. He spends quite a bit of time engaging with this particular verse. It is an extremely engaging read, although not an easy one for a non-specialist.
