Dropped Out of College

Greetings BP,

So I’m 19 years old, from the Chicagoland area and I’ve decided to drop out of community college couple of weeks ago. I realized that a traditional education wasn’t for me and it would hold me back from achieving my dreams.

I am now educating myself on real estate investing everyday and pursuing entrepreneurship full time. I currently run an e-commerce store that has been profitable from the jump (looking to build more) and I’ve got one wholesale deal under my belt.

My goals right now are to own a few cash flowing rental properties and complete a couple of fix and flips to raise capital. I am looking to build long-term wealth through real estate.

I CURRENTLY need help/advice on:

-Raising capital for deals

-Learning the art of acquiring properties with OPM

-An efficient way to find great deals

-Looking for potential investors with the funds to partner up for future deals (Ex. I find the deal and I present it to an investor looking to split profits if it makes sense)

Any help would be much appreciated!
