Still green, but thinking a good niche would be housing close to universities and colleges.My long-term goals in Real Estate are to eventually get in to commercial properties such as apartment complexes and office buildings.For the past two years I have been educating myself on Real Estate investment.

Even give them a call to ask about wholesaling as a broker.That'll get your education started off right!

A good REI bookkeeper will help keep everything neat and tidy throughout the year so you can make educated decisions in your business, potentially creating more profit and less headaches.

Either way, you're the fiduciary of your plan so it's important to make smart educated investments.

I also got great value from a very expensive course on how to properly buy & manage residential real estate.Regardless of cost, the ones that offered low value were the ones where the founder wanted to sell education as their main business. 

They will be able to guide you through setting up financing, creating an investment plan, getting subs set up, and creating an execution plan.A good investor focused Realtor should be able to guide you on what markets you can afford, help you focus on your personal risk tolerance, and find a property that fits your skill set and financial goals.The more educated you are as an investor the better, but the right Realtor is going to unlock a wealth of information that is going to super charge your knowledge of investing, and help expediate your plan. 

Hi @Ken Almira - once you have narrowed your market, make sure you build a team from the start so you'll get the best education in that particular area.

Find out what they offer as far as education and support, what their fees/splits are and what their expectations might be.Remember, you will need a certain amount of continuing education hours, and you will want a Brokerage that has the support you need to help you through your contracts and answer questions.

I’m also networking with investors, lenders, and other professionals who align with my mission of creating opportunities for future investors and helping others gain education in real estate.If you have experience with:✅ Finding off-market deals✅ Creative financing strategies✅ Scaling from single-family to multifamily✅ Investing in South Carolina real estateI’d love to connect, learn, and potentially collaborate.Let’s build together!

@Dominic Joseph Jean step 1, start getting educated/learning about what interests you.
