Looking for a mentor- house hacking

[Emily De Leon]

Hello, I'm a newbie and started to get into REI about 2 months ago. I've been listening to podcasts, taking a course, and reading books trying to build my education. But I want to start taking more action and I signed up for my first Real estate networking event this Thursday. I'm excited and a bit nervous but that's just me being an introvert. I would love to find a mentor(s) that could help guide me through this investing journey. I'm currently thinking about house hacking as that would probably be best in my situation. I feel like this strategy could work for me because as a future military spouse, I could live in the property for a year while learning how to manage the property and tenants. Then when we move again, we'd have a long-term rental and so on. At least that's how I see it at the moment. I'd love to hear your advice and knowledge, it's greatly appreciated.
