New and Hungry!
Hey all,
I am a 24-year-old who just started in sales after graduating from college and have had a lot of success early on in my new career. However, I know that I do not want all my income to be reliant on my day job and live to watch my retirement account grow.
I am probably doing better than a lot of people my age but am eager to take the correct steps to build a real estate portfolio. I was a foster child who put myself through college on my own, and I have relied on some good friends for a place to stay as I grew up, which has motivated me to create a better life for myself.
I have done a lot of research on real estate, and from my perspective, it seems as if wholesaling, which I feel my sales skills may help with, would be a good place to start to make some extra money to speed up the investing process. From there, I would like to explore house hacking/the BRRR strategy, but I know there are rules, regulations, and connections I will need to make all this happen.
If anyone is willing to have a conversation or thinks they could use my help in bettering their real estate business in return for some advice, I would love to at the very least create some new relationships.

Depending on your income, I would focus on growing your sales business and then dumping all of your income into real estate. Wholesaling is just adding another time-for-money trade to your already busy schedule. (I am young and in sales myself)
