Real Estate Investing Courses Canada
Whats the best way to get experience in the real estate business ( real estate investor )?
I was thinking of spending 1300 dollars to get my real estate license, that way i’ll know what i’m doing. I don’t want to work alot for 6 months and end up buying a bad deal house, what do you think? Also my friends real estate angents friend is a property manager, he says he needs help, cause winnipeg ( canada ) has alot of outside investors currently, my friend thinks i should phone him and ask if i can work for expeirence, then maybe after working for 4 months maybe i can start looking after property’s for money too, that way when i start buying houses i’ll know what to do better? But of course i think i don’t have what it takes to be one, i don’t know a damn thing about managing, i’ve just read rich dad poor dad, and 4 other books on investing and real estate.
i’m 20 years old, working a regular job ( almost minium wage )
I was in the same boat as you. I’m 21 years old and I’ve been with my current employer for a little over a year. I wanted to transition from a job to a career in the real estate industry. I wound up in the lending part (I work for a mortgage broker). I really enjoy what I do and I’ve learned so much from the lenders perspective as well as the buyers perspective. I haven’t purchased yet myself as I’m still trying to save, but I’ve defiantly got a foot in the door so I know what I’m doing. An advantage to working on the lenders side is that you know what you need to be approved and you can make friends with the realtors. The realtors will let you know when that certain property is available and can also teach you a couple of things.
