Real Estate Industry is a great potential and your starting point as investor is right here.

The mortgage industry tapped out due to capacity issues, no one in mortgage said "man we need to staff up in case we get hit with a global pandemic" a year ago, and as a result no one is staffed for this.

That is not an industry wide rule.

And by the way you won’t be a real estate investor, you’ll be running a business within the real estate industry.

Also, congratulations on your upcoming graduation.There are many routes within the RE industry that you can take - RE Attorney, property manager, project manager, Realtor, construction, and more.

Industry wide, no one started staffing up a year ago for #coronavirus.

Hello BP community, I’m new to this forum I joined after reading “Rental Property Investing” I’m currently taking classes to become a Agent here in Ohio. To all the agents out there, what makes a good brokerage and wh...

😳😳😳😳 ( I am in Clearwater Florida ) What is your biggest industry in Clearwater?

-if prices do not rebound we will need a plan beyond that and it will not be pretty-this can and will hit the rental market in a variety of ways and here are a few potential issues i see.1. higher end rentals could see prices drop or vacancies increase as this type of downturn could hit middle to upper income families that have not budgeted or who see their jobs or incomes decrease as companies tighten their belts and cut salaries or even lay off more folks.2. low income rentals would see more evictions and more late rent payments and potentially small decreases in price - while many of the low income families in town do not work for the oil and gas industry they do often work in service industries that are frequented by oil and gas folks or depend on programs that are subsidized by oil and gas money in our state budget. 3. property prices and values - prices are being driven up on investment properties mostly by out of state investors as there are very few areas where you can get a "decent" property for under 100k and we are still one of them. 

We want to close as soon as possible as the industry we work in has been deeply impacted by the corona virus and the market, which could mean possible layoffs limiting our options or the refinance itself.Kind regards.
