Should you own a primary residence before investing?
I’m 25 years old and I’m gaining ground in my real estate investing education. I’ve read several books, listen to numerous podcasts in BP and have read several articles on the forums. I’m looking for advice in the fact that I don’t currently own my own primary residence. I currently rent and am wondering what the opinion is on starting to invest in real estate before owning a primary residence.
Long story short, I’m torn between purchasing a primary residence for myself or use that same money to start to invest.
Thanks you!
