Thinking of going into real estate

[RoelofZ]

So this is my background:
19 yrs old, pro poker player, in college.
Making 20-30$k monthly only needing a small part of that.
I've played poker professionally since ive been 18 and I would really like to get into something new.
I've heard some success stories about pro players investing in real estate and renting out the apartements/houses and I think it would be something i would enjoy doing.

Are there any pitfalls to look out for? Is it easy to combo with school + poker?
I was thinking about maybe buying a small condo of around 200k and renting it out to some students.
