hi guys I'm young but I want a arm more than having a regular job. What do I need to know to eventually be making a lot of money in investing in real estate? Where should I start? Thank you
Try to read a chapter a day on any real estate book. After a few years you'll have a good amount of books you've read and you'll be much more informed than anyone else your age. Search the forums for books and there's a few lists of popular books.
your first and most important investment should be your education this is really important! read tons of real estate material and equip yourself with the right knowledge! understand real estate language and talk. google any terms you dont understand.. good luck!
Assuming you live expense free. I would get a job and save every penny ,along with learning and reading as much as I could. By the time you turn 18 you can have a big head start
First concentrate on school just like everyone else here has said, try and take some business courses. there are a lot of Articles, Blogs and books offered here on BP. I would take time to go through the stuff, try and go to a local real estate investment club meeting and talk to investors there, but be Leary of people and just try to learn what you can, do not invest in something they are offering. just take your time and learn as much as you can.
