New to Real Estate. Looking for mentor/internship

Hello, my name is Shelby and I am new to real estate. I am in the process of becoming an agent and would love to get involved in the industry. I have been looking into investing as well. I currently have a part time job as a nurse so I have time to help with whatever is needed. I was thinking about trying to get into the commercial real estate space but not sure since I have not been exposed to that as much. Any advice to a soon to be agent and investor?

Hi Shelby, 

I am also a RN who became an investor and later agent.  Keep the part time job as a RN and build a client list from within the hospital.  Also use your knowledge and knowledge of others to get in good with traveling professionals.  I have a large list of friends and acquaintances who are travelers and they regularly use my midterm rentals (MTRs) as they continually cycle through the Baltimore area.
