Real Estate Attorney or Real Estate Agent?

[Yosselyn De Abreu]

If you didn’t have to pay for your own education and wanted to get started in multifamily investing, would you go for real estate attorney or real estate agent?

I’m utilizing my GI Bill and working full time, so all the money I receive from the GI Bill goes straight into savings and my work income is used for rent, bills, etc. After I graduate with my bachelors I’ll still have time leftover in my GI Bill and I want to max it out. If you’re not familiar with the GI Bill, you pretty much get paid to go to school and the military pays your tuition. So I’ll graduate debt free. My end goal is multifamily investing, but I don’t have multifamily investing money right now. I want to continue going to school so I can continue to get paid and save up to invest. Might as well go to school for something beneficial to my end goal. Which option do you think would benefit me most in this business? Real estate attorney or real estate agent? Any advice is appreciated!
