Looking for a job in the industry

[Marcos Cabral]

First-time post on the forum:

I am currently 18 years old and am looking for a job in the real estate industry.

I want to be a property developer & investor in the long-term and seeking advice on a specific job/s that I should study/apply for that would best help me gain the skills and experience towards my long-term goal mentioned. 

So far, being a property manager is an idea thought of, and still looking and open to hearing recommendations for work in the industry.

Hope someone in the forum can help out and that whoever is reading has a great day.

Kind regards :)

Yes, a property management position would be a great start. It will teach you one how to handle one of the most difficult skills investors struggle with: how to manage rentals. It will also produce a stable income while helping you learn what investments perform best. Sales is another option, but it's difficult to earn a stable living for your first couple of years.
