Graduated/in debt, can you really make money in RE w/ no capital?
I’ve been in my career job for a year now and it didn’t even take me the full year to realize that I don’t want to work for anyone or depend on anyone for my financial future. Especially with COVID going on and I wasn’t working, I knew it was time for a change. Open to any advice!

You come to the right place! Connect with amazing people in this group and pick their brains.
My small piece of advice, be creative, everyone needs somewhere affordable to live, so start from small. And always be looking for ways to provide value.
