First hand real estate education.
Hello, I'm Victor and I am new to the real estate game. I am incredibly excited and looking to get out of the rat race and I'd like to start utilizing real estate as my investment vehicle.
I'm wondering if anyone could give me a couple of suggestions on this post. What I'm looking to do since I am a bit shy to finding an organic mentor is to kinda do what was suggested in Rich Dad Poor Dad when Rich dad said for Robert to play golf because eventually Robert would end up doing it some day and the best time to begin building his skills was when he was young.
In my search for knowledge and aquiring first hand and realistic education, I think a job in real estate may help me learn faster and come with more 'aha' moments. I'm a newbie and just starting out. I have no accounting skills but I love playing with numbers, and I like strategy. Any tips on how I can work my way into the industry as an employee at an entry level and basic position?
As of now at the basic level I am, my goal is to buy and hold properties at the residential level to produce a consistent cashflow. Knowing that, it gives me an idea of what I can be looking out for if and when I hold a position in a real estate business.
Many thanks!
