Choosing a College Major
Hello everyone! I am currently a college student going into my junior year of college. I have had a rough time picking a degree but I am now very interested in investing in real estate. I want to work for myself as opposed to working for a boss. I think real estate could be a way for me to do this.I want to pick a degree that will give me the most knowledge in investing in real estate. Prior to now I was an art major so I have an eye for design. What college major/minor would you recommend? I am debating if interior design would be the right way to go. I want to learn about evaluating houses to determine what their worth and what renovations would bring the value up. I would be willing to hire out major renovations but I still want to have knowledge on the subject as well as do the minor projects myself. I'm thinking I could be both a buy and flip and buy and hold investor if I can buy cheap then renovate myself (or with help). Does anyone have suggestions?
