How to get a job in real estate w/ no degree or experience
Hi everyone,
I'm interested in gaining on the job knowledge and experience in real estate investing or real estate period. Unfortunately, I have prior experience or degree (yet). My major isn't real estate because my school doesn't offer it. How do I land a job in real estate? I'm not here for quick money I want to learn the business from the ground up the right way. I'm a hard worker with a thirst to learn. Advice?

Intern or work for free. Volunteer at your local REIA. It's a great place to network and meet successful real estate investors. Maybe offer to help those investors. Maybe they need help writing letters and mailing envelopes.
If you are willing to do anything, then say that. And mean it. Do it with enthusiasm and always look to take on more without needing to be asked. A good attitude goes a long way.
