@Jayden Grissom get a degree in something that will pay well. Investing in real estate requires that you have your financial life in order. Income, savings, and credit score, that’s what matters. As far as education you’ll have to self educate in order to gain the knowledge needed. There is no degree program that will teach you how to do this.
