What an 18 Year Old Should Do

Jacob Rhoads

Posted
I’m currently 18, and I am looking to start investing in real estate to supplement my stock portfolio. I know learning about how to invest in real estate is a lifelong journey, but I was wondering if you guys think going the route of buying a quadruplex and house hacking it would be a smart way to go when I graduate from college? (I would Invest now but my college is out of my home state)If you guys could give any beginner advice or books you’ve read that really helped I would be very grateful.

@Jacob Rhoads You are definitely starting in the right place. I think not only should you partner with a professional to learn their side of the business, but it would be worth it to find an investor you trust to partner with on your first deal. You'll start getting the returns you're looking for...some money, education, and experience with less risk.
