Hoping to get started in investing

Hey, I am currently about to move into my first home. I recently got into a job that i don't like but i have to keep it to pay for the house. I have always considered investing in real estate but never committed because of the risk. I read and watch a lot of videos but I still don't know the best approach. I want to do this full time and I se offers about "financial freedom". I don't know where to start. I am hoping to network and learn from everyone. Any advice or comments is appreciated. Thank you!

First of all listen to all the BP podcasts. They all have valuable information in them that will help expand your knowledge in Real Estate. Second, listen to their book recommendations and start reading. This will get you information that you need to form your own approach. As for me I'm looking to do a FHA loan with some house hacking on a 2-4 multifamily property and repeat this every so often until I can pull some equity from the properties by forcing appreciation and making extra payments. Then 1031 that to an apartment complex. If you want to talk more in detail just message me, I'm always down to talk about this.
