Getting started Need Help

Bernard Bertrand
Posted

Hello

I’m 21 years old Set to graduate in May with my bachelors in accounting. I’m going back to school for my masters in taxation. By May 2020, I’ll have my masters, a good portion of my cpa complete and I already have a job lined up in Real estate taxation.

I’m really interested in getting started real estate but I have no idea where to begin. I want to begin wholesaling but I don’t even know where to start. All I want to have atleast one rental property by 25 or 2022 but i live new york city and i know this market is not the best. Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

@Bernard Bertrand, if you haven't started listening to podcasts already, I'd suggest you start with that. It's very helpful to begin having some exposure to RE lingo. You may also get a better idea on whether you want to wholesale or not. Based on what I hear in the podcast, wholesaling is not easy. 

@Basit Siddiqi made a great point. Focus on finishing first. FYI, New Yorker here too! Went to LaGuardia Community College. Originally from Elmhurst, Queens.
