Advice on getting started
Hello everyone my name is Steven, I'm very new to the world of Real Estate Investing. I've been doing a lot of reading on Real Estate Investing (currently reading: The Millionaire Real Estate Investor) and I'm really motivate to get out there and make something happen. I don't have anyone in my bubble that has done any Real Estate Investing before so that makes me a bit reluctant to get out there and get my feet wet. I don't want to my first deal to be my last. I know that getting started can be pretty intimating but I do want to get started. If there is any advice that anyone can give on networking, or referring me to anyone in the Hawaii (stationed there) area that has some experience or beneficial guidance, or any steps that would get me started that would be extremely beneficial. thank you!

Try to find a local real estate investors organization to join. That is a great first step to meeting other people with an interest and experience in real estate as well as a great opportunity to learn.
