How to begin with little resources

[Josiah Mosley]

Hi BP community!

My wife and I have very little resources right now to actually go out and buy our first property. Our goal is to be able to purchase a duplex and house hack in the future in the Oklahoma City area. Right now we have college loan debt, credit card debt, and I am currently pursuing a master's degree in counseling psychology. We really do not have a lot of income coming in right now either. Other than focusing on paying off some of our debt, what are some things that we can be doing proactively to prepare for buying a duplex in the future?
