Investment strategy with 2
My brother and I are looking to start 2018 with a jump into real estate investing. I started
off by
reading real estate books. As i got more and more familiar with the industry, I decided to take a course and take my real estate liscense to learn more through experience in the industry. I take my real estate associate broker exam on the 22nd of December. I have now also started to schedule and attend seminars to network and gain more knowledge. I have become obsessed with learning more about the industry and begin my own planning. I am looking to work as a real estate agent for a brokerage and start game planning my investment strategy. My brother and I have never bought any real estate before but have gathered up 20 K each. I am 24 years old with about a 700 credit score and my brother is 21 and bearly starting credit. What strategy or suggestions do you all recommend for us to start?
