And eventually or even now, go to Real Estate Events all around Chicago, most of them are free and you can find the events on Meetup.com or Eventbrite.com (my company also hosts a lot of events every month that are free @A&N Mortgage which you can find on Meetup.com).Good Luck!

I do NOT rent to any real estate agents, brokerages, or property management companies as they would be a competing business and it wouldn't benefit either of our businesses to share a building.

I need credibility, either through working for a couple of years for a company or buying my own property, starting small, and scaling with time.Now, my plan is to graduate next year (Im a junior), and get a job in a firm as an analyst in order to build that experience and mainly cover my living expenses, while on the side buy my first small property and go from there.However, and this is where I start overthinking,  I still have 1 year left in school and I want to use it to my advantage as I don't have any expenses or responsibilities other than school yet, and I want to do my first deal.

Hello AllI am a business management executive for a large global company, and we (my wife and I) are getting into local real estate investing primarily within LA county, IE, OC and Riverside area.

I'm building my portfolio of SFRs in Houston area, and thought I had signed up with the best property management company in town.  

As some background, I'm looking for turnkey or close to it and would be using a management company since I have a busy full time job. 

The rep from their company that accidentally called me this morning was calling from Florida. 

@Caiden Mooney, if you are going to rent the property to third parties you may also be able to use a self-directed IRA to fund.

Our company flips homes in Laguna Beach, and we operate student rentals (currently in New Orleans, but planning to expand).

You can have a formula to pull the individual property tab income to this master tab.I have my ROTH IRA owned properties with a different colored tab and they are in a separate section on my master tab.
