Looking to get started in real estate in the Ann Arbor area

Sebastian Rivera
Posted

Hi everyone,

I’m currently a freshman CS student at the University of Michigan, and have been fascinated by real estate as an investment vehicle to produce steady cash flow. While my background is in software development, I’ve spent a good amount of my free time trading equities/options, learning finance, and now looking into real estate.

I’m very limited in capital and options, but that is only due to my ignorance. I know there is a way, but I just haven’t found it. I’ve always been willing to learn, and would love to find others out there who can relay what they’ve learned. 

Regards

Sebastian

@Sebastian Rivera

Welcome to the world of real estate where everything with good planning, habits and work ethic can do wonders.

There are local meet up groups on real estate; which can give a chance to meet fellow real estate investors.

You can do flips (buy-rehab-resell); rentals; wholesale (buy-sell) and other variations.  You can always leverage capital from private lenders, banks or other sources.

Good luck for your success
