Hey Bigger Pockets! I've been interested in real estate since I was 16 (check my earlier posts)! I've always wanted to get into the Investment side of it, and now that I feel more educated and more capable of working with others, it would be interesting to shadow an investor and see how everything works, in the real world, with real people, and real problems.  If anyone were willing to do that, or knows of someone that would, please leave a reply under this post!

Hi Sargis,

I own a MTR management company in Los Angeles. If you're interested in internship opportunities in this space, DM me. We also have a background in STRs and rental arbitrage.

    Hey Sargis! That is amazing that your interest started so early in life! It made me wonder what you are doing to fill your time now. Are you still in school, are you working? If so what subjects are you studying and/or what is your job? I started going to college around your age and got a job in a real estate law firm. It gave me light years of investment and real estate knowledge. I think working on your mindset as an investor is also very helpful to start as soon as possible. Tony Robbins is great for motivation and then find podcasts with all kinds of advice. I work with investors every day for my job now, this is what I wanted to do since I left the law firm and it has been great. I have the ability to talk to or "shadow" investors for more than a day. Real estate isn't a get-rich-quick option, it is a long game, and your perspective of what "rich" is changes. You have your whole life ahead of you so value your time as a young person and start building relationships that will take you where you want to be. It looks like you are off to a great start!

    I know you re in LA, I am down in here in Texas. A lot of folks from California have been BRRRing properties and impacting our markets with profound profit! I know it's not much to say now, but I can demonstrate over a virtual meeting for you so that you can discover new potential and just be an extra point of contact for you. Message me when you are open later this week and interested to see off-market inventory in Texas. -Steve

    Go to some real estate meet ups (dress respectfully) and ask questions of those you meet.

    Go to every meeting....read a lot about real estate investing....

    Have enough money to invest....the floor might be around 30% of the cost (or more)....(unless you intend to live there).....

    Know the neighborhoods where you intend to invest (and)

    Cash is King....(have enough).

    Good Luck!
