Hey BP community I need some help. I'm a 22-year-old recent college graduate who has a passion for learning about real estate. I'm thinking of getting into house hacking as my first investment, and continue on through rental properties. My current job right now is decent pay, but not guaranteed as it's a temp position, and I'm not learning anything as it's mostly labor work. I was unemployed for a while and this current job is basically week to week.

Currently living in my mother's basement, all I want to do is learn, network and help out as many people as possible, and possibly get a job that could dive me into the real estate field. I started studying to get my real estate license, as becoming a realtor may the route I need to pursue.

What would you guys do in my position? Should I wait to get a solid job so I can start efficiently saving for a multi-family property to house hack in? And what job would work best with diving into the real estate field while all I have is a sports management degree? I'm open to any feedback/opportunities

Thank You
