College Major
I'm trying to decided what my college major should be and the closest major my school offers to real estate is finance and marketing. Which one would be prepare me for my real estate career?

Hands down, major in marketing. Being a real estate professional is synonymous with being a marketing professional. Also, while you're attending college, study, pass and put into practice your real estate license before graduation. In retrospect, this is what I would have done differently. The earlier you get started in real estate, the closer you are to being a full time principal, which is the ultimate end game and reason we're all on this site, right?
