@Paul Moore and others have done a great job taking fees down in the product.  

There is strong rental demand because of growing population, job market, and the booming tech scene. 

If you do a good job picking tenants, you will be fine.

Happy to connect and educate some more whenever your schedule permits!

My daily job is to buy commercial real estate.

I work outside of the US (Hong Kong), making slightly north of 100k per year, with scheduled salary bumps of approximately 4k per year. 

I am also a licensed EMT, and would love to provide housing for travel nurses, contractors, etc. in that realm since I can relate to them in previous jobs that I've had.I'm looking to invest in these states preferably: Georgia (1st choice - preferably near or south of ATL or in/near Savannah), Alabama, South or North Carolina, and Florida.

Quote from @Jay Fayz: Hello everyone,I've recently been exploring real estate as a potential career path and I'm looking for advice on the best entry-level job to gain experience and knowledge.

But as said above it is not an easy job and the salaries are not great working for someone else. 

You are working a demanding corporate job but also want to build rentals on the side.
