How/Where should I start?

Hey my name is Dominic, I'm 17 years old from Utah, turning 18 in a couple months, and I've put in a lot of hours into trying to educate myself in the ways of real estate. My main mode of RE I'm interested in is in rental properties, and my goal is to BRRRR a single family home within 1-2 years before I serve an LDS mission. How would I go about starting the steps towards achieving this goal?

I'm also very open to flipping. I'd like to learn to work with my hands and save a lot of money rehabbing property mostly by myself. What are good ways to develop and hone construction and handyman skills as a young person to help me with my future endeavors in real estate?

This is my first post so I hope this goes well, and thank you guys!

@Dominic Canete Great job getting started young!  I am past 40 and just now getting started.  I wish I had my head on right when I was 17 the way you do.  I wish you huge success!
