How to start in realestate?

[Derrick Blackwell]

Hello to all,

I'm interested in breaking into the real estate world as a side gig. My background is in the medical field (RN). I don't have any real estate experience. I am interested in learning and earning along the way. What is the best way to learn, start a business, make connections and build my core four in real estate? 

I've considered:

1. Home inspector

2. Realtor

3. Property Manager assistant

4. Bird dog

5. Read a few books get a couple core four recommendations, buy a property and hope for the best.

Your feed back is much appreciated, Thank you.

HI Derrick,

You could probably consider being a realtor or property manager assistant to get your hands dirty in the industry. However the best way is to get in the door by acquiring one so maybe house hack. I know housing prices in DC can be scary especially Georgetown but maybe Virginia or Maryland since it's like 20-30 mins from the capital
