College student looking to get foot in the door

[Riku Kiyokawa]

Hello all!

My name is Riku, a senior at Michigan State University studying construction management.

I am interested in buying fixer uppers, and selling them for profit or holding onto them to generate passive income. I have basic knowledge in construction from my field of study but I have only taken one class on real estate finance so I have limited insight on how to get the capital to begin investing.

I have looked into buying the books by Brandon Turner on rental properties and the books by J Scott. Are there books in particular you guys recommend I read in order? As of now I am thinking that I need to read books about procuring capital to begin investing. 

I would greatly appreciate it if you guys could point me in the right direction!!

Also if anyone in the Lansing area is seeking another hand on their project, I would be more than happy to offer my service in exchange for the experience and knowledge you have in real estate investment.

Thanks for reading!
