Hello Bigger Pockets People!
Greetings, i am a 20 year old college student at Massachusetts College of Art and Design currently living at school in Boston. The reason i am here today is today is because i have been intrigued by real estate since i was old enough to know what the words meant. Anyways i want to hear from real people with real advice and experiences, I'm not sure learning everything from random website articles is going to make me successful.
I just need to start, with my first investment even if it is under 100k. I feel like its time for me to invest in something for my future. After all art school is not promising much. :/
I was hoping someone on here could help me make my first moves to getting an income property or my fist condo, or home or whatever! I would love to hear your experiences as well.
I am also going to be living off campus next year and i am looking for economical way to invest and live off campus in Boston.

I took classes at Mass Art- what fun!!! Don't give up on it, there are plenty of career paths in Art. If you don't mind me asking, what are you majoring in?
Bigger Pockets is a great place to learn about flipping properties. Brandon Turner gives weekly podcasts. He would probably recommend house hacking. Buy a multi family, live in it , fix it up, while renting out part of it. He is a really great resource.
Good luck on your pursuits!
