Residential or Commercial agent. Based in Los Angeles (WEHO)

[Donny M.]

Hi all, 

I’m new to BP but have been an avid real estate student for quite a while now. I’m looking to break into the industry and was hoping to get some insight on my personal situation. I live in West Hollywood and have some solid contacts in the business.  I have been going back and forth between being a residential or commercial real estate agent. I have a background in analysis of MF properties but I feel like residential could be more lucrative and faster to reach a solid income due to high home prices in my area. Commercial interests me more but I feel like it’s a tougher path to making a strong income. My goal is to own rentals and get into syndication as well. Thanks for the help!
