How Can College Students Get Started in Real Estate Investing?

Hey there BP! Real estate investing has become more popular over the years, with people from all stages of life getting involved. From the middle aged person with a day job looking to diversify their wealth building, to the retired professional looking to get into something new, to the college student looking for a different path, all have their motivations to hop into real estate investing. College students or those just out of college face a certain set of obstacles that can be difficult to move around. They may be limited in cash as many others just getting started are, and they may not have established credit. It may also be hard to get others to take them seriously due to their youth. In todays' video I talk about how college students can get into the game, and even leverage some of their assets to get ahead. I would love to hear from those of you out there that got started in real estate while in college or at a young age. Share your experiences and stories below so we can get a good conversation going! Take care, #biggerpockets, #derosagroup, #collegestudentinvestor Matt

1. Hey, how's it going. Friends/ people call me Yaro. I never thought that people could get cash like this. Very smart. I thank-you for putting this video out. This is the very day that I got into investing.
2. Hi, great video! I'm currently a high school senior and I'm very interested in going into real estate, however I'm not exactly sure the best way for me to get into it, or even what to major in college for. In my high school I'm taking the architecture major, and although I hate all the drawing and outlining parts of it, I love the construction and building part of it. Would you be able to give me advice on what I should do before going into college? Thanks!
3. Matt, love your videos. This one was very distracting w/the autofocus going in and out and the camera moving around alot. I also had my volume maxed out and had trouble getting you loud enough (maybe I'm going def :-))
   
   Content 100% as usual. My question: Where would you start if you have to keep working to pay the bills? Quads or duplex?
