I’m 16 and waning to find experience with real estate where should I start?
hi, my name is Madison and I’m a junior in high school. I am looking to becoming a real estate agent and later a broker. I was wondering if there was any summer jobs as an assistant or to house sit to get my feet in the water with some experience. I know I can not get my real estate license till I am 18 but is there any questions I could also ask current real estate agents in order to gain knowledge?

What are the most common mistakes made by newcomers in your field during their first year, and how can I avoid them? Any resources you would recommend such as books or certain mentors to follow?
I'm interested in becoming a real estate agent, a real estate investor as well as a stock market investor in the future.

How do I select what I want to be?
honestly feel like I'm at a crossroad. I've been told to get a job that pays well, but to also get one that I will enjoy in the long term. All my life, I've wanted to go into the crime and investigation studies , on the physical side, but I feel as though that would be something that wouldn't be in the long term and I would find myself not enjoying as I get older. I also have been looking into real estate and doing that in order to make money at a young age to invest it early. But, my parents are pushing me to get a degree, so I was thinking of getting a management degree to open my opportunities even further. But, if I were to minor in criminology studies, would there be a bridge in order to crossover both of those things? Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks!!
