Career Resources
Enjoy your high school years and worry about career-specific steps when you get to university.
But if you're really set on starting that early, I'd aim for a part time/summer job with a property management company, ideally see if you can get an internship at their offices or helping a building manager. You won't get anything finance-related at that age.
Other than that, read the news, stay informed with what's going on, and try to meet people in the industry. If you have any connections to people in the industry, see if you can job shadow them for a couple days.
I think PM can be super underappreciated in CRE. Working on the PM side of things really allows you to get smart on how to manage a property, but even more importantly, to think like an owner / investor. I think this is great if you want to invest in CRE down the line.
If you have free time, you could start learning/studying finance on your own such as Discounted Cash Flow Models and other valuation methods. You will eventually need to learn these in college if you want to pursue anything finance/CRE related and it will help you get ahead in your classes in college if you study finance. The concepts aren't rocket science and plenty of free online resources that you can read/study/watch. I'd be pretty impressed if a high school/college freshman knew about DCF's etc...
