For any real estate investors

22 years old and currently focused on using my left over income to invest and pay off my debt. I am set to pay off my college loans by next year and, when I do, I want to look into investing into real estate.

Pasted a list from excel to PowerPoint however when I try to make them bullets, PowerPoint reads it as a group of text (only puts a bullet for the first line). Can manually delete and press enter for each line to get a bullet but curious if anyone has a quicker solution?

(For context we look very similar to typical T2 consulting at the moment )

I’ve been asked to develop 4 slides that summarise a firm’s strategy but I won’t get the chance to present the deck. Does anyone have any tips on how to make great, concise slides? Thank you!

Does anyone know how to avoid the line break when pasting text in PPT? Usually happens when working with tables, but ran into the issue with a text box today too. Annoying to go in and backspace each time.

What are the best PowerPoint plugins you recommend? All consultancies have their own, as a freelancer I am looking for a good alternative including all typical productivity and formatting tools if possible.
