Does anyone do real estate on the side? Is this something I can feasibly do part time? How much do you earn?

I work a 9-5 & got my real estate brokers license a few months ago but today is my first day putting in effort to do real estate on the side- I’ll let you know how it goes!

I know people who do and people who don’t. The people who do it full time make a lot more and build better connections than the ones who don’t. It’s a lot more work than it looks

Depends if you’re talking about being an agent or investing. I invest in sfh real estate, not the easiest time to find deals but it is improving. Definitely recommend getting educated and looking into your first deal to get your feet wet, look up bigger pockets.

If you’re talking about becoming an agent, its all about your drive to be a good salesperson. Takes alot of patience, sales and social skills to be successful especially the past few years but definitely doable. Im a socially awkward weirdo when it comes to sales and social skills with strangers so I’ve stuck to the investing route for now.

Depends if you are going into real estate agent or loan path. Either will require you to learn lots and at least pass some certification. Additionally, both require a lot more time / prep work than most think.

Add to that the current interest rates, and now may not be the best time to break into it unless you have a mentor that can guide you and throw some deals your way.

For any of you real estate investors, what tools or sources did you learn from when getting started. Can’t find a mentor currently so want to find some highly recommended books or videos. If focused on the tri-state area (NY, NJ, Long Island mainly) that would be even better. My hope is to buy and rent out a apartment while also owning a house and house hacking that by renting part of it out. Trying to understand all the steps, traps, and how to find if it’s a good investment.
