Need advice/help/guidance/suggestions...

Really lost right now and getting very anxious about my situation...I already posted a thread with some of my background so I will copy and paste and add a little from there:

"Anyways, a quick background about myself: Graduated from a top 50 University, mediocre marks(3.1) in a non-finance background (liberal arts/business minor), and had intentions of going into law. After getting accepted to some law schools and graduating I decided not to pursue law as I really didn't have a passion for it. Fast forward two years and I have worked one year in retail sales(I was a top producer and was also promoted to a senior position fwiw =( ) and the last year/currently have been working in the capacity of a real estate agent.

As an agent I've closed countless deals, worked with one of the highest grossing teams in FL, and have learned a decent amount about the real estate business in general, albeit residential not commercial. Do I have a shot at landing a gig at as an entry-level analyst in a real estate investment type fund/bank/financial servicer/whatever? I have a strong interest in real estate and investing and I believe that I would be a good fit for an analyst position. I have a rather likeable personality, great sales skills, good communicator, and would consider myself a great interviewer. Even though I make good money as an agent I don't want to be a salesman the rest of my life and would really like to try and move over to the financial/investments side of real estate. If not, is there something I could do to better myself in getting into a role like this? Should I get any certifications(beyond my real estate license) with ARGUS or any of the other commonly used RE valuation programs to show my interest in moving over to the financial side."

Ok, so that is pretty much where I have been at for the last month or so, and still I am unsure if that is really the route that I should go. I have been heavily researching getting into some type of real estate investment company or fund and starting at the bottom in an analyst type role, but am not certain if I could even qualify for a position like this in the first place. I understand how to do basic modeling and all of the methods of RE investment analysis(npv, irr, cap rates, etc), but I feel my resume will just look so weak in comparison to the people with higher gpa finance backgrounds with more relevant real estate experience. Every day that goes by my anxiety level has been getting significantly higher as I feel like I am slowly missing out on my 20's(I'm 24) and giving myself a chance to create a strong career path.

Should I stay in the south where I can live for considerably less cost and attempt to get this type of role in here or move up to NYC and room with 2 of my good buddies and try to network my ass off(estimating at least $2k in expenses a month)? Should I look into some MS in Real Estate programs? Should I work for another year or two in something moderately relevant and entry-level in NYC and try to get into a top MBA program? Should I study like a boss for the GMAT and crush it in hopes for fall 2014 acceptance and try to get into IB at the associate position(work in the real estate division)? Can I even get into a top masters with my mediocre experience and gpa? Fuck why is it so fucking hard to decide what to do...I feel like I have wasted so much time contemplating my decisions that it is hampering my growth.

I guess the most important question I have for you all on WSO is am I completely wasting my time in the south if I know eventually I will probably need to be in NYC to get the job/salary I desire in the long run? I guess I am just worried that with my experience I may end up finding nothing for 6 months and be kicking myself in the ass for moving up to NYC and blowing $20k+ in my savings just to live there until I start an MBA because it is the only way I can realistically break into finance at this stage of my life.
