Im thinking about volunteering in a active property management/investment firm for 6-8 weeks, just to learn the language, so to speak.

I have been a volunteer Fireman for just shy of 25 years now.

Ask questions as they come up.Once you feel like you have the basic understanding of the concepts, start attending your local real estate investor association (REIA) meetings, network with other investors and see if you can visit some of their projects.If you're still interested at that point, but don't feel confident in your ability/knowledge, try to find a successful local investor who will allow you to volunteer your time in return for seeing how his business is run.

Some of the subs volunteered to drive over an hour on a weekend, after their part of the job was done, to help install the stairs, for free, because they liked my husband and son, though we didn't have them do it.

I spent the last 8 years in New York for some school, and religious studies (im an orthodox jew), and I am moving back to LA next week, bringing along a Masters in Education and my recent ordainment as a Rabbi, as well as a few years experience as a Volunteer EMT.I am really excited to learn more about real estate.

You could get a quick answer by calling a RE/landlord attorney or ask your question on avvo.com They should freely volunteer basic information like this, or you can coax it out of them by pretending to shop for their services.

I can volunteer my time doing work for you, if the need is there, simply to learn and grow.

Looking to intern or volunteer, in order to acquire the hands on experience and knowledge.Best RegardsLucas Pinto

Volunteer your time, learn the business, help them out, grow.Hope that helps some!

I can see how staying local to Josh is easier for him, but I am quite sure we could get enough volunteer help to make a different venue happen.I just returned from my office on the 60th floor of the Cosmopolitan last night.
