R.E. Development Path -> 2 ways?
Hi everybody,
I wasn't able to find too much information about the topic, but I know the traditional career path to becoming a Commercial Real Estate Developer (i.e. apartments, hotels, office) is
1) Networking to get a job with a real estate development company or if all else fails, get an MBA/MSRED to get into a real estate development company.
2) Work and Gain Experience
3) Go out on own, make your project, and profit.
I was wondering if there is a second path to becoming a commercial developer by starting with flipping homes instead.
