My office is on the first floor - this conference room is on the 3rd floor and used by the entire office building.I've used it before for casual meetings and it's great since there won't ever be a seating issue or any noise issues like a public establishment could have - plus there won't be any business owners "expecting" us to buy food or drinks while we are using their conference room.If anything, we can try it out once and if we don't like it - no biggie and we can go somewhere else.Friday for me before 2 pm are good.

Biggest issue would be that they are well attended so you would probably only have a seat in the back or standing room.When I did my classes there we got out a little early most days so you can play in by ear and if they let you go by 6:30 (really is less than 5 minutes away) you could hit it.

My wife found it on the the internet and we had a quick look, I wanted to wait until we had saved a little more of a deposit but decided it was best to get in to the market sooner rather than later.Turns out it was the best time as the property has increased by about $200,000 in 3 ears and that is without the renovations.

Not sure what the rules are where you're at, but part time work might look like cleaning out houses or helping with rehab with a general contractor - That's only IF you want to go down that route.I've got limited experience in RE Investing, but if I were in your shoes, I might break the industry down into a couple of categories: Read about Wholesaling/Marketing, and maybe try to get some part time work in that realm....There's also Property Management, which might become available to you as a leasing consultant or something similar with a property mgmt company or at an apartment complex.....Think about jobs at banks too, as spending time there could give you an idea of how loans are processed and what gets an applicant approved or denied......Lastly, and something for RIGHT NOW - I'd say get in touch with a general contractor that does rehabs - or get your friends and family to keep an ear out for someone they know who does fix/flips - Go to them and try to score a summer job with them....Cleaning out vacant homes, assisting the contractors, doing whatever they ask.
