You can get that experience by working for a commercial real estate developer / owner / operator

I would suggest reviewing DSTs as an option for passive real estate ownership.

Used a real estate agent How did you finance this deal?

I don't know much about real estate so I need guidance on whether to look for a single-family home, a town home, something near colleges, etc. given that I will have a very limited budget.

It's pretty one sided.During their "inspection period" they will list everything wrong with the property, "real or imagined" and try to get you to reduce your price.

Much appreciate folks,Steve.Steve do you have a real estate attorney that operates in the city to give the proper guidance? 

Landlord/tenant law varies state-by-state, so I would recommend speaking with a local real estate attorney.

Check your state laws regarding real estate.

I feel like since real page bought them out it has gone downhill. 

@Mike DawsonBOI needs to know the owner of the entity so yes it’s you who has to file and provide your id if you own the LLCThe common misconception with Wyoming LLC’s is people think they are hidden it if you do real estate most forget that if you sell a property or get a loan, that document is recorded and your name is all over it - so it’s super simple to find out who owns it.
