College Student Eager to Learn — Any Advice for Breaking Into Real Estate?

[Zev Cohen]

Hello,

My name is Zev Cohen, and I’m currently going into my junior year at the University of Colorado Boulder, where I’m studying real estate and finance. I’ve developed a strong passion for real estate, and I’m eager to start gaining real-world experience outside of the classroom.

The challenge I’ve run into is finding an entry point. I don’t have much experience yet, and most jobs or internships seem to require it. I’d be incredibly grateful for any advice, insight, or opportunities to get involved, whether that’s shadowing someone, helping with social media or admin work, or just learning from those ahead of me.

I’m willing to work extremely hard, and I’m open to anything that can help me get my foot in the door.

If you’ve been in my position before, I’d love to hear how you got started — or if you’re open to chatting, I’d really appreciate it.

Thanks so much,
Zev
