Tired of my cubicle

Hi! I'm interested in learning all I need to know about real state investing. My goal is to be able to work part-time at my current job and part-time in the real estate business.  I'm a beginner trying to figure out what to do first. Should I get my sales associate license? Should I attend a physical real estate school or should I take online classes?

@Sharon Rodriguez Welcome to BP! I recommend getting a license but I'm biased because I am an agent. My thought process is why not make some money while you are learning about real estate and your local market. I also think that there is some value in the training. You learn about contracts and different things that will make you more knowledgable. I did an online course that was made for my state but it worked great. Best wishes and good luck!
