You could go into brokerage and sell properties, working your way up to brokering commercial properties. 

. :)There are provision for seller to list and instruct their agent not to put their home on MLS .having owned 3 brokerages over the years there i always an agent or two that l only double ends their deals if they can.

Hey everyone,I’m looking for advice on how to leverage my brokerage account to acquire a rental property — either locally here in New Jersey or out-of-state — that can cash flow 8–10% annually after all costs and expenses.Here’s the catch: I’d like to avoid using margin loans or anything with high interest rates.Is it possible to make this work in today’s market?

You can invest through a brokerage account, giving you passive exposure to real estate with lower minimums, though they move more like traditional stocks and are subject to market swings.Since you're looking to trial the space, start with a conservative, income-focused fund or note investment.

We do not have an in house brokerage so we are always looking for good investor focused agents to help our clients out with the aquisition side of things!

@Danny Vanthere are some brokerages that offer HELOCs on investment properties... but, this doesn't make any sense as an investment strategy. 

I think the true learning begins when you join the right brokerage.

Use my own brokerage
