I would suggest finishing school, working as a part time agent while you are at school, saving commissions for investing, and working with a team that focuses on investing as opposed to residential sales.There are also local meet ups every month. 

I’m an 11 year contractor turned full time REI.

Maintained appropriate insurance yourself (builders risk when under renovation, vacant when vacancy periods exceeded your insurance policies allowable time frame etc?

As an agent I often times refer to emotional appeal as a large factor on what drives purchase price. 

President Musk may change this at any time. 

I can tell you first hand that the demand for student housing is at an all-time high. 

Quote from @Dinesh Nair: I am a Canadian investor with a US corporate entity- we closed on our first property and now working to find financing through a lender… however rates keep changing all the time.. is there a site to track rates ? 

All I can speak to is the past two years working with Michelle, Michael and their team and over that time I have had nothing but a great experience. 

A lot of times you cannot view the property.

At this time the primary goal is passive income and then scale within 5 years as I gain more experience and network.
