I did Big 4 audit and had a Masters of Accounting, before I went into real estate investments.  Actually, I did a real estate accounting internship while in school.  
 

While my exact path might be harder now (Big 4 audit to large fund) compared to 20 years ago, getting into real estate is all about your story trying to convince someone to give you a chance, after you demonstrate a track record of hard work and competence. 
 

Your story should be personal and authentic.  And it should rationalize why you are obsessed with the sector.  
 

Have compassion as well as ambition and you’ll go far in life. I am interested in digital immortality. Check out my blog at digitalimmortality.com
