The name is french. I believe it means mischievous child. Complicated story on how i actually ended up with that last name, but it doesn't exactly match up with my personality!

I took Real Estate Principles which pretty much dives into the basics. I learned the vocabulary associated with RE and some of the important formulas that are used to calculate Rate of Return, NOI, Amortization etc.

I have to take one more class to sit for the state exam which I am currently already enrolled for along with a real estate investing course.

The problem with traditional learning is that it is all theory and concepts. Actual application and visual learning is what best suits my learning style, although I can learn either way.

I am looking for an individual or team in Miami Florida or somewhere nearby in search of opportunity. I am interested in any type of learning experience in real estate investing. I am specifically looking for an individual that wants to help a young investor like me get their feet wet. Of course, I am willing and able to assist the business even if it means grabbing coffee, food etc. If there is employment opportunity, I would be interested as well. Whether it is paid or not, I value the experience over any dollar amount. I have reached out to several investors without a response so far. I have met with one investor that told me to learn the business A-Z about 4 months ago. Since then I have taken courses at Florida International University and worked as a Loan Processor for a mortgage company, which enabled me to understand how financing works. Any help or assistance would be amazing. Thanks.
