Hello I'm Christian I'm 17 turning 18 in December and located in California. I'm going to be getting into real estate investing however the challenge I'm facing is that I have no capital. I understand that I will have to be getting into good debt but I'm not completely sure on how to do so, so if any of you have any advice or help you can give I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you

Many guys start off wholesaling because you can do it with little money. It's more of a job than investing, but you make money on the resale. I'd suggest start off with something like that. Also, go to REI meetings, get your RA license, and/or get a job with a property manager to learn the business.

Ask yourself what you're trying to get into.  Get into that arena by adding value to someone else's business.  Work for free if you have to, just to learn.  Don't forget, listen to the BP podcasts in your free time.  They are gold!
