Starting out in real estate!

[Anna Urbina]

Hello Everyone!

I am beginning my real estate investing education. I have a couple of questions/concerns.

One of my personal goals is to be a homeowner, should I save for my first house or begin investing? I currently live in CA so housing is expensive other than certain parts of the state.

How do I go about learning the laws and taxes in different states? Would I just look those up?

What is the fastest way to save the money for a down payment? I was going to use a money market account. I just feel like the longer I take, the less deals I’ll find.

Any other advice would be appreciated :) Thanks for your knowledge :)
