Feeling a little stuck

I decided to get into real estate 2 months ago and although I've been searching for deals, I feel a little lost. Btw, if you are wondering, I niched down to land.

However, I found new construction the other week and wasn't sure if that was an opportunity I could go for.

Has anyone ever felt so lost starting out?

@Dominic Cruz @John Huberty Congrats to both you guys for starting the journey! It's a normal to feel a little lost or stuck in the beginning, mainly because there is a lack of direction & knowledge. We've all been there, so the best thing you can do is continue to learn and make progress every day. Networking with other investors in your area is a great way to get started.

I'm all about jumping in, but I recommend doing it wisely. I wouldn't rush to buy something if you're only two months in. Real estate builds wealth, yes, but it can also hurt you. The last thing you want is to have a bad experience for deal number one and quit. 

Hope this helps - best of luck to you both!
