How to get financing for a property without a steady income?

[Alauren Lane]

Hello, 

I am a student at The Ohio State University, and my goal is to house hack a property in Columbus, OH in 2024 in order to begin my journey in real estate investing and save money on housing while in college. Can anyone chime in with advice/knowledge on the process of acquiring financing for a property? I will be a student without a full-time job or steady income when I plan to purchase my property. How will this affect my ability to get a loan?

Any information shared would be much appreciated!

 You should just start cold calling. Then if you find a deal you can partner with someone that is lendable. I did that when I first got into real estate here in Columbus, Ohio
