HELP!
I am 27 years old, single mom, with ++ support. My family currently owns commercial property and I have always been very passionate about real estate investing. I am a nurse and work full time, but wanting to explore this lovely world of investing, yet having no idea where to start (being as my education is medicine). I have read that a good place to start might be taking an accounting program or perhaps the Real estate course to become a broker. I have applied to the OREA - ontario real estate acc. and am giving serious thought to doing this program. Im not sure if this is a good idea, it seems slightly costly and is a career that requires lots of time and attention with continue education (although I realize investing would as well). I just am worried this may not be the right path to travel down. Please give your thoughts, i appreciate any and alllll advice! :)
