Just start my real estate adventure!

[Kyle Green]

I’m 23 and starting to get into real-estate! I have a good paying job to fund my first couple business deals. I’ve been educating myself with books and multiple podcast. I’m looking to buy my first property to live in. Would buying a duplex and living in one side and renting out the other a good idea? My long term goal is to own multiple rentals solely for my retirement. Short term I’d like to quit my job and go full time rehabbing (do most of the physical labor myself) and wholesaling. I live in very competitive fast growing area. I don’t know where to exactly start. My wife also just got her license to make things a little easier. I’m basically her sugar daddy on this business adventure until I can quit my job. So what is the best property to buy first to increase your chances of success?
