    Description
    Real Estate Investing is an introductory course for the novice investor. Students will learn four investment phases of a selected property: evaluation/selection; acquisition/financing; stabilization/profitability; and disposition/reinvestment. Students will exercise logic skills to calculate mathematical formulas on financial worksheets such as purchase budget, income statement, and investment return metrics. A comprehensive report will be prepared which includes detailing the phases and correct worksheet calculations. This course is designed for the aspiring real estate investor who has the time available, capital (or resources), and commitment to secure their first transaction, structure their passive income stream, and begin building their wealth portfolio successfully. No prerequisites; however, a basic understanding of real estate and competence in college-level mathematics is strongly recommended. Acceptable for elective credit by Department of Real Estate (DRE) for license.
