How to Work a Full-Time Job and Start Investing
So, I really want to get involved in real estate investing, preferably buy and holds, but I love my job. What are some things I can do to, at minimum, start getting my foot in the door? I just graduated college this past May an an engineer, so I don't have a whole lot of extra cash to buy a house yet... What are some ideas? Through the BiggerPockets podcasts, I've heard about seller financing, and financing houses with other peoples money, but I feel like that'd be a little difficult as I have no track record. So please, if you have anything to add, I'd love to hear it, even if you told me to just save 800 bucks a month or something until I had about 10 grand for a down payment.
