Hello,

I’m looking to invest in real estate in New Jersey. Is anyone knowledgeable about the difference between Multifamily buildings (what is defined an apartment building as opposed to a dwelling) and the different tax implications for each? And if any percentage needs to be designated for affordable housing?

Hello BP community!

I'm a high school student with a serious interest in REI and I feel I might like a specialization in (commercial) Real Estate Finance, however the only job I can think of is to become a commercial mortgage broker. What other jobs are out there in real estate finance?

Thanks for your help!

Hi everyone,

I met with a developer yesterday, he said that he thought the two most important parts of becoming a developer are construction and law. Do you agree with this? I understand how to get construction experience, seemingly straight forward and not expensive, Law also seems important but something you should got to school for if it’s your interest, not a necessity, especially since it takes 3 years and +$100,000. The reasoning was that law school helps you think differently, but do you really need to go to law school to gain this knowledge, and you can’t find a lawyer who can help you think this way? I feel like I could do a lot in those 3 years while saving a $100,000 which can go towards investing.

Thank you!

Hi,

What are some of the most beneficial jobs in the industry that help boost someone’s knowledge and experience before starting to invest and even develop commercial real estate?

Thank You!!

Hello everyone. Obviously, many of us have a lot of time on our hands, while simultaneously not being allowed to gather. My question is, are you aware of any upcoming webinars about real estate investing? When/which platform will they be on? One I would like to report, (not an affiliate) is one many of you may be aware of, Rod Khleif’s bootcamp on May 2nd/3rd, for $97, it will be on zoom I believe. Thank you for your suggestions and stay safe!

@Marlen Weber I’m not sure I understand entirely. Of course I will need a job for some time, but I look to be my own boss, and I’m not looking to be an employee(for very long), I’m asking if college is worth it for someone like me who will take more of an approach to become an owner as opposed to being a long term employee.

Hello all,

I’m currently in High School. I already know that I’m an entrepreneur, and I love real estate, so I’m almost positive I’ll be a developer and investor(but not closing myself off to other possibilities). School bores me most of the time, of course I will graduate HS, but the idea of four years at college, for a degree in something that may be pointless and may waste my time and money, I just can’t wrap my head around. Many people go to college to be better suited for a job, but that’s no what I want, I want(and know I will be) a boss! I’m sorry if this is coming across as arrogant, it isn’t my intention, I’m just trying to say that instead of wasting my 529, I could invest it and get real working experience. What do you think?

Thank you!!
