What RE-related job is best?

Stu Toepke

Posted

Hello everyone. This is my first post to BiggerPockets.

I moved to a new city/state and I'm currently looking for work. I realized this evening that as long as I'm looking for work, I may as well look for work that I could learn from and apply to my future real estate investing career.

What work/jobs would you suggest I look into? I have no prior experience in any sort of RE-related work. What would be a good entry-level position that would get me into an operation or work that I can learn a lot from?

Thanks for your thoughts.

@Stu Toepke Pends on what you want to do with RE. Being an agent will allow you to find deals, make offers, and sell RE while purchasing property of your own. Property management careers will show you how to run your RE portfolio. Construction will teach you how to build/fix/repair your projects. The list goes on, to better define a job/career that may fit what your trying to do I suggest you think what type of REI you want to focus on.
