Buying your first property

Hi everyone, this is just a question about your first buy on a property. Did you guys already have friends and acquaintances in real estate before you made the big leap on your first deal or did you just go for it and did more networking afterwords when you needed it?

Thank you for your time. :)

(P.S I am just a 21 year old guy trying to start early)

@Ryan Pimental I had just graduated college and was starting a job in a new city with which I was unfamiliar. I was going to look for an apartment and a roommate. My dad suggested I buy a house and let the roommate pay me rather than some other landlord. I bought a SFH with an FHA loan, and the rest is history!
