Career Change for Experience

[Corben Briggs]

Hey guys!

I wanted to see if I could get some advice/guidance on change that I am thinking about making in my career. To give you guys a recap on my situation, I am 24 years old living in San Diego, CA and brand new to real estate. I have been doing a lot of reading, listening to podcasts, and researching way to get into real estate but have not yet had the opportunity of actually doing my first deal. 

I currently have a wonderful full time job, however I have been having second thoughts on staying with the company as the job doesn't really match up with my personality and doesn't seem to be the right fit for myself and my goals anymore. Being my age I am considering looking into another job that relates to real estate that will give me more experience and insight into the industry which will allow me to apply it to my own future portfolio even if it means taking a reasonable pay cut. I was wondering if anyone knew of any organizations or types of companies like this that I might be able to look into. 

A few things to take into consideration is that I have a lot of experience with sales however I don't not have my real estate license (I know this is a requirement for most jobs like this). I strongly believe that gaining experience at this point in my life is much more valuable than making good money at dead end job! 

Anything helps,

Cheers!
