Thank you for those words of wisdom I'll remember that!

Thank you Dawn! I'm still finding different and new categories in the forums and sometimes just don't know which ones to put it in thank you.

Hello I am Noah. I'm in highschool and plan to become a real estate developer. After reading Donald Trump's "The Art of the Deal" It says towards the beginning that a reason his Dad was successful was because he negotiated everything even construction crew service and materials. My question is how do you haggle for better deals on construction services and materials? Thank you.

Hello I am Noah. I'm still a student in high school and I would like to become a real estate developer. I've read a few books on development and have gotten a light grasp on it and I want to do it, however I would need a substantial amount of capital to start out compared to other REI like wholesaling. My question is what are good strategies to start at the bottom of a ladder and climb to RE development or some other ways to get into it quickly? Should I start in buying and holding or wholesaling etc? I would also love to hear what degrees you all have and what colleges you went to and maybe some success stories thank you!

Hello my name is Noah, Im in high school currently and plan on becoming a real estate developer.  I would like to build a real estate empire etc. I love BP and hope to gain as many tips and knowledge I can. Thank you.

Hello, my name is Noah and I am very new to real estate and BP. I am apologizing in advance for this cluster of a mess of questions. First question is what are the best colleges that offer either a major in finance and minor in real estate or a major in both and which is more beneficial when It comes to being a real estate developer(What I want to do) . I  always see Wharton being at the top of finance, real estate, etc. in posts and I read that to get in to Wharton you obviously need great grades (which I have) and something like great diversity or something and write a compelling essay on why you should be at Wharton(it's obviously harder than I made it sound), after Highs school I plan on enlisting in the Army for about 6 years, I'm an eagle scout and I am related to a founding father, other than that I dont have much more to put for the "Diversity/Culture section" Back to degrees the reason I don't want to get just a real estate degree is I would like something to fall back on in financing or something similar to real estate developing if the risk in real estate gets too high for me. I also heard of people doing construction management and finance for degrees or construction management and real estate too. I guess the overall question is which is the best for real estate development plus a back up job in financing or banking or construction management. I would also like to know people's thoughts on being a multi unit franchisee to fund real estate projects. Sorry for my poor writing I've never posted a discussion or anything of the sort. Thank you for all future answers. I couldn't decide whether to put this in starting out or real estate developing sorry if I chose wrong one.
