How to become a successful real estate entrepreneur.

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Becoming a real-estate entrepreneur will take hard work, persistence, and the ability to handle rejection and economic instability. However, putting all of that aside there is a way that you can some day achieve your long-term goal.

  2. Step 2

    The best way to start is to purchase some property such as a home, or condo in a middle class area. Next, keep in mind the sole purpose of the purchase is to rent or lease the property and collect the royalties. More than likely, depending on your financial situation you will have to borrow the money from a bank until you become established.

  3. Step 3

    If you want to take some risk, try purchasing more than one home or condo and use the properties as income rental. This is the way to get things started. It is best to purchase real estate when you are young and use the income to build your business over a period of years.

  4. Step 4

    Don’t become discouraged. Real estate property investments and rentals take time until you begin receive a decent income or rate of return. After a number of years, you may easily earn six figures from your property investments. Remember, it will not happen over night.

on 8/7/2009 Nice post. Yes this doesn't happen overnight, and flipping as we have seen is not a good strategy, which means investing for like you say rental income is the key. But a lot of hardwork.
