Default Looking for some help!

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and it looks like there's a lot of people that know a lot about real estate, so I figured I'd give this a try...

I'm a junior in college, and I'm looking for a summer internship in commercial real estate investing and development. I've always found investing in and developing properties to be interesting, so I want to get some experience as it may be a potential career someday (note: I'm not looking for a position as a real estate agent).

I've spent a ridiculous amount of time contacting commercial real estate firms that I found on the web, but I have not gotten a positive response from anyone. Can anyone give me any leads? Does anyone know of any firms (big or small) with internship programs, paid or unpaid? Anyone want to take me in as cheap or even free labor???

I'm pretty flexible with location, but I'd prefer to be in the Northeast (NYC, Boston, Philly, PA, NJ). Any information is helpful; the internship search process is so frustrating.

How are you approaching them?

I think part of the problem is they're extremely busy. Having an "intern" follow them around or be around in the office might just be a pain in the rear to them.

Keep trying though. If that's what you want to do, keep plugging away. When you get a "no" - treat it as a stepping-stone to your next YES.

Prove to yourself that you can do it. If you turn up with no results, try something different. You can visit www getrealrei.com. You can join the website and can get the real estate strategies to investors of all different levels. Do not give up. See how she turned her self from a housewife to a millionaire.

check with ur major hotel chains as they are constantly growing into bigger markets and would love someone who is willing to learn and get paid for learning. They will eventually train u to work for them. Try Mariott, Hilton, and maybe Blackstone Group. These Hoteliers would love an upcoming individual who can learn their system and not bring bad habits to the table, ok. Good Luck
