In addition, with the wave of big layoffs that have just been announced (11,000 at Meta, 10,000 at Amazon, 4000 at Twitter and a bunch of other companies not to mention a lot of layoffs in the construction industry and real estate agents/mortgage brokers needing a new job) if inflation has peaked, it's probably because we are in the early stages of a real recession (versus the technical recession of Q1-Q2 earlier this year).

Real estate is a lagging industry, it took 6 years for the last crash to bottom out, it doesn’t drop overnight.

.- Our industry is Short Term Rentals not Airbnbs. 

@Jude Cineas I did things a bit backwards, having already been a veteran investor and decades in housing industry, I knew most of it already, and I came into it eyes wide open.

That’s how I feel the industry has been (even see BP posts about it).

One way to learn about some specific aspects of real estate is to get a part-time job at RE related industry, like property management company, book-keeping, financing, virtual assistant, anything you can have time to get into along with your schoolwork, even if you have to do it for free. 

I'm a Green Designated Realtor/ investor who specializes in sustainable and prefabricated housing (tiny homes, airbnb, ADUs) Would like to connect with anybody local in the industry to create new opportunities!

Id love to network, make connections, and even possibly form a JV partnership with experienced fix and flip investors and get my feet wet in the RE industry. i  have 35 years of home repair and remodeling experience ( plumbing, electrical, drywall, siding, kitchen remodel etc.) and i’m offering my skills and services to investors who are looking for a reliable, experienced, and honest partner.

Love your passion for real estate it's an awesome industry that we really aren't taught about in school.....which is sad.   

I have over 25 years in the industry and have merged the old school way and new tech way of managing multifamily assets across the sunbelt.
