@Jimmy PresnellI definitely agree with @Natalie Kolodij as that being a great way to immerse yourself in the market and establish a presence. 

Your next step is to immerse yourself in your education and either buy a property or invest in a syndication.If I had to do it all over again, I would have focused on financial freedom.

10- Stay motivated by immersing yourself with books, podcasts, meetings, mentors and successful people and you will never lose your purpose.Good luck!

After the 1st it's late, ends all the game playing.

At first, I was hesitant about the location, but after culturally immersing myself it was not as things appeared.

If you are looking to immerse yourself in real estate investing there is no better way to do it than working in the industry. 

Bob Okenwa Thank you Bob, appreciate the reply and I will most definitely immerse myself in as many books as I can.

You would need to do some serious hustling - calling commercial brokers, networking with commercial lenders, investors, brokers, researching markets, trends, just immerse yourself into that world to get the best deals  It's not a hobby and if treated as such,  you won't get far. 

You have come to the perfect place to immerse yourself in all that is real estate investing! 

I've been listening to the BiggerPockets podcast for a few months now, am in the process of reading Brandon's book on REI, and am just trying to immerse myself in all things real-estate.I work as a programmer in the financial industry, so currently I'm most familiar/comfortable in the stock market with mutual funds.
