Can't hurt to do both, point being is don't be sold on realtor hype - but the local realtors no doub thave great knowledge.Perhaps do it in the reverse order so that you have more petinent local questions to ask the realtor on the bus tour.Local REIA is a good suggestion as well.If by emerging you mean not in your traditional big metro hubs and areas that are growing in jobs and population, I tend to think and hear alot about Missouri, Colorado, Alabama, the Carolinas, and of course Texas (but when so many people are touting texas it makes me wonder if prices may be a bit inflated - perhaps it's just BPers that are privvy to the "Texas Train")Nothing like bringing life to an old thread..

After 1 year, i have completed 18 real estate transactions with all of them netting over 20K and i have created multiple streams of income for my business that give me monthly profits of over 5K a month.

Generally you would like to have multiple sources, or streams, of income.

I'm a little worried that a Banker/Realtor/Lawyer won't take me seriously because of my age, but my parents said they will sign on a loan because I don't have any credit history.My major goals are to have a stream of income in college and to be financially free when I leave college.Does anyone have any advice for me?

So, just compare the money now to the income stream and see which works better for you.The rehab piece for rentals vs. flipping is different.

It might not be an option....maybe its just the price we pay for making money from Google.Just wondering if its possible...I havent found a site that does it.Also anyone else know of good revenue streams for websites?

I like my income stream slow and steady giving the government a minimal amount of it.

I would also like to take some of my money I were to get from wholesaling to pay off the homes and have a HUGE stream of passive income while I am at a very young age.

I have multiple income streams.

This is due to the court system streaming things a few months back.
