On order to be a successful real estate investor you would need to
#1 Find the local real estate investment group (Google real estate investment group followed by your city and state.)
This group would hold regular scheduled meetings that would offer information about real estate investing, how to purchase investment properties, vendors available in your city that would benefit you in you investment purchases.
To join this type investment group is not expensive, there would be annual dues and probably fees to attend the meetings whenever they are scheduled. (Normally these fees are for the cost of food)
You would have the opportunity to network and make friends with those that are current members. You might even find a person that is willing to take you under their wings and become a mentor to you.
#2. Buy and read as many real estate investment books as you are able. You would be able to find such books from Amazon as well as your local bookstore. Make sure these books are published after or around 2009 for the latest techniques used today in real estate investing.
The books you would be seeking are 1. Buying and flipping 2. Wholesaling of investment properties 3.Buying and holding investment properties. 4. Buying distressed properties such as divorced, probate and foreclosures from homeowners. 5. Short sale properties. 6. Buying Real Estate on Hand (REO) from mortgage lenders
There are many phases of real estate investing.
#1. Buying
A. Flipping for additional funds to purchase more properties
B. Holding for rentals and tax benefits
#2. Wholesaling properties-This is where you would buy a property well below market value. Instead of you doing the repairs, you would sell the property to another investor at a higher price than you paid and this investor would do the repairs. Normally the profit would not be less than $5,000 to you. You might also consider wholesaling if you have more projects than you ar abel to handle at anyone period of time.
While in college you would want to see if there are any real estate courses available, if there are you might consider taking a few as elective courses, as you did not indicate your major.
There is more to learn than I am able to go over here, you would need to obtain much information from reading the various books and from members of your investment group.
I hope this has been of some benefit to you, good luck.
