I have a Bachelors degree in Finance, and although I thought hard about going into the banking industry, I settled for the investment side of Real Estate.

In this industry, you can't be a push-over, whether that involves contractors or property managers, you need to remember that every decision is ultimately up to you.

This obviously stems from a shortage of deal flow within the industry particularly on the lower level.What I want to say is that obtaining tapes to review is more of a result of doing steps A, B, and C correctly and consistently than an activity.

I lack confidence to make contacts on the investment side of this real estate industry. 4.

I'm trying to look at this as an opportunity to start learning and doing real estate in some niche of the industry but I don't know what to do or where to start.

I know that people debate over whether to get a license or not, but in my case I am looking to be active in REI and generate more income for my deals/learn more about the industry so I think it makes sense for me.Thank you!

Hey Jay, yes this is a pretty new industry and has created a need for short term rental property managers.

There is definitely a transformation coming in the retail industry and I do believe that many of the big box stores and large chains could be in trouble.

However, I was able to raise over $100,000 from friends and family to begin investing in small multi-family deals, and I 100% put this down to my drive and passion for the industry and educating myself as much as possible.If you are 100% committed to something, success will follow.Good luck!

My rent comes from a diverse collection of businesses and industries, all stable.
