Right now, we're a bunch of strangers commenting on your post - we don't know your background, financial situation, W2 job, lifestyle (single, married, kids, etc), risk tolerance etc (not that you should share all that information on a public forum). 

I have been playing the multifamily game for almost 10 years now, and the GRM is one of my least favorite methods personally since it ignores so many important factors (steam boiler versus electric baseboard heat as an example). 

Your NOI, revenue, location, risk for the business, assets (land and infrastructure mainly), equipment (yurts would be considered business equipment), and more all play a factor.

@Gustavo Delgado Tax Saving is one of the factors people consider while investing in RE.

what factors should I be looking at when making this decision.  

Its just kind of the nature of the beast and investing were over 50% of all homes are rentals its a different lifestyle than what we are used to at least on the west coast were maybe 10% of SFR's are rentals  renters rent apartments.

Lifestyle addition, B. 

Another factor I considered is that the role will help me understand RE markets better and be looking at a lot of deals.

It could certainly be a concern - but depends on a lot of factors - are you looking multi or SFR? 

I may be 19 but that does not have any factor in how I efficiently operate my business, as you can see.
