Types of Education
Hello everyone I am 19 years old and live in Connecticut. I am currently shoving as much information from books and info off of bp from the forums and podcasts as possible. I am trying to learn as much as possible and want to further my education in real estate. I was looking into getting my real estate license and joining Ct REIA's coaching program. Any thoughts on some more things that will help me in the future? I am currently trying to save up a lump some of money (20-30k) for a downpayment on a house to flip and make some money off of until I can make cash offers on a home to buy and hold. Any help would be great on information about real estate in Connecticut and the best education I can find. Thank you guys so much and happy holidays

welcome Ryan, awesome ideas .. Along with BP and the books, maybe think about learning about mutliple strategies, like buy and hold as well as flip. Then at 19, you might think of how a part time or summer job might boost your experience. If you like flipping, I think working with almost any residential construction crew could be helpful, especially one doing remodeling or even, yes, flipping . Even just as a laborer you would learn a lot... Or if you like management, working with a property management firm, even doing maintenance or helping with showings is ideal. This is a different angle than classes but could be very helpful..
