Part-time work in the RE industry

[Arissa Dahl]

Hi everyone! I'm very passionate about real estate and I've been an investor for over 7 years. I've flirted with the idea of quitting my day job to dive into real estate, but I haven't been able to take the plunge. I live in Washington near Bellevue. I'm interested in working part-time in some capacity in the industry. Any suggestions on which angle is in demand currently (escrow agents/mortgage brokers/ real estate brokers/appraiser/mortgage loan officer)? I would love to work alongside people who are currently in the industry to network and get my feet wet. I would like to keep my stable day job for now, until I'm able to transition fully into the industry. Although I work Monday-Friday 8-5, I'm constantly reading/listening/looking at real estate in my spare time, and I'm ready to commit fully to a part-time RE career. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, BPers! ☺
