Should you get rid of debt before investing?

In this case I don’t have much debt in regards to credit but in past due college tuition payments. I have about $15k I have to pay back for school. I want to invest in real estate and don’t want that to hold me back. I’m paying that balance down little by little each month though. Should I focus on paying that off first before I invest or does it make sense to start my real estate journey and use the cash flow to help pay it off faster?
