College in my opinion is HEAVILY overrated UNLESS you know the field you are going into is high pay and high demand and that in the end you will come out ahead.Sadly many rack up student debt to be doing something ( not saying this is you ) and then switch to something else.

I was born and raised in Washington DC, now married and living with my family 10 minutes outside of DC in the shadow of FedEx Field in PG County Maryland (so I can walk to Redskin games).

hello my name is Skyler Jimenez...I have just started to break out into this career feild.

My wife and I have been thinking for years to invest in real estate, however because of our lack of knowledge in this field, and our own fears, it never went beyond the "thinking" phase.

Ok I've been reading, dreaming, and planning a real estate career for a while now.

I just started my real estate investment career by renting my primary residence while I am away, working for the Army.

People will always, and I mean always gravitate to the best presentation.Don't create a new career (you are an investor), but follow your instincts about this and put a reasonable amount of time into building a web presence.

@Leo Lupoli I started where you are, no experience, no family in the business or any related fields, but I figured out one thing that is the key to anything you want to learn - I know how to read.

So we do work on furthering our careers.

Hi everyone I'm new to the forums I'm in the chicago area and would like to know if anyone knows of a good reia club around the area, my question is should I try to rent out my town home and buy a sf home and make it as my primary residence to avoid the 20% down payment and only pay 3.5% I guess my question is is this a good way to start a real estate career , thanx to anyone that responds
