Am I Thinking Too Big?

[Evan Betzler]

Hey everyone,

I'm looking to purchase a 4 unit rental property in the greater Boston area at the end of 2019. I'm still in college, have a ton of student debt, don't have a steady job, and still have much to learn about RE investing (hence why I don't plan on buying until a few years).

I plan on living in the building and hiring some help with managing the property. I'm dedicated to learning and saving until I have at least $15,000 to go into the deal, but I still worry: Am I going to be in over my head? And will I be able to secure financing with a low down payment in spite of my student debt?

Thoughts?
