My recommendation would be to take business classes at a technical college while working/ interning for a company in a field you are interested in.

Here's some basic copy & paste info that may help you make better investing decisions:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

I recommend you go to the source and educate yourself on all the landlord-tenant laws, particularly in an increasingly regulated state like Colorado.Here's a good starting point: https://doh.colorado.gov/landlord-rights-and-responsibilitie...

I would also recommend that you do not narrow your investment options.

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

Of course we all have to start somewhere but I tell everyone I do business with regardless if it's with me or someone else I always recommend them to build a portfolio.

First, I recommend you understand the market.

Quote from @Brian Hill: Do anyone have a recommendation for a San Antonio Real Estate Attorney that deals with creative financing and title work? 

My last offering was has been a real challenge and Matt has stuck with it for over a year.Never swaying from his commitment to me and my success.You need to be willing to take his advice and work hard but his stuff works.I would whole heartedly recommend him to anyone who is serious about raising private money.

Also if you have any areas you recommend and why I appreciate that.
