College Duplex

Phillip Joo
  • Corona, CA

Deciding to give a 4 year University a try, I realized that I can do Real Estate in college. Personally, I STRONGLY believe that college will be the worst investment; in terms of financial debt, I will do. Its not that I have something against getting an education, but there is no degree that I find will translate into a future I can live with. I've grown out of the mindset that Real Estate is all about money. Meeting people who have the same passion as I learned is A LOT better than meeting people I don't share much with. But back to the point;

During my freshman year of college, I want to purchase a duplex near my University. I found that I can gain passive income, and can get the first hand experience I need. and During my second year. MY ONLY PROBLEM is finding someone with the capital to pay the downpayment. Should I find an investor? a family member?

How can I make both parties happy and more money? 

How difficult is it to manage a duplex?
