Advice for new investors

Me and my wife are going to get in to RE investing but we are completely new to this. Our goal is to grow our portfolio to the point where we can live off the income our properties bring in. But like most things the 1st step is the hardest so far. I’m open to learning any other starting strategies you guys know. I’ve been doing a ton of research and I love learning this stuff but I’m to the point where I’m ready to take action but I have no idea where or how to start. So far I’m considering either starting with wholesale or a house hack or both. I’m looking for advice and tips on starting out and would love to read what’s the first thing you guys did when you started investing? Thanks in advance and continued success to you all. Take care.

@Brent Paul thanks for the reply and my answer is yes to all the questions in your post. The ultimate goal will be to grow my portfolio to the point where we can quit the 9-5 and live off the real estate assets. I’ll definitely take your advice and get more detail with my goals to have a clearer plan of action. Thanks again.
