158: Rookie Reply: The Best Career Moves for an Aspiring Real Estate Investor
This week’s question comes from Ryan through Ashley’s Instagram direct messages. Ryan is asking: What job would be best for real estate investors? I’m currently doing maintenance for a contractor, but am having minimal takeaway. What’s the best move for financial freedom?
Real estate side hustles and full-time jobs come in all different shapes and sizes. What one job path may lack in salary, it may make up for in experience and connections. What’s more important than immediately jumping ship at your current job is to see what you can do within your role to grow your skillset. So how do you get paid, gain experience, and buy more rental properties?
Here are some suggestions:
Look for opportunity within your current role and ask to take on more of what interests you
Ask an investor if you can work with them directly, you’ll learn a ton!
If you’re having trouble getting deals, look for a partner to invest with
Fully understand your expectations within your current and future roles
