Career Shift to Amplify Education in Real Estate Investing

[Cameron Daste]

Hi All - 

Looking for recommendations on a career shift to speed up my education in real estate investing. My background is in analytics and have worn a couple of different hats in the space - sales compensation, business performance / reporting, COGS management, and opportunity / risk evaluation and implementation.

Real estate investing is the first topic in a long time - maybe ever - in which I've been truly interested in learning more. So, I figured a career shift to something I'm more passionate about could only help with my goals of having success in the space down the road. 

What career choices would you propose for someone in my position that would help bolster my learning? Mortgage lending? Property management? Investment analysis? And would also love any recommendations on how to get into these areas.

Thanks in advance!
