Picking a Market

Hey BP, I am currently playing my last year of baseball at the University of Memphis. I want to begin my real estate journey as soon as I get out of school. I already own one rental property, which is doing great, with cash flowing around $500-$600 per month. I am extremely interested in pursuing a career in real estate. I am going to get my real estate license as soon as I graduate. 

I have lived in Memphis all my life but do not know if this is the market I want to pursue. If I wanted to move to Nashville and be an agent, what would some be that I needed to think about before making this decision. I think long-term Nashville is going to be a much healthier market than Memphis. Thanks for the insight!! I don't know what I don't know, and I want to learn as much as I can!!

    I believe success can be found in any market, happy to jump on a call with you to chat about joining eXp Realty which is the most revolutionary brokerage in the world (Literally!) Your success in real estate will be determined by you ultimately. Mindset is key and just know that this is a business and you would be actively seeking clients and every day you wake up your working for the paycheck you receive in 30-60 days.
