Hey @Stephon Paul, congrats on making the first step which is deciding to invest in real estate.  I think the first few steps would be to research investing as a whole.  Listening to the BP podcasts and reading their books is a good place to start.  From there decide on what type of investing you want to focus on.  Maybe that is buy & hold, short term rentals, house hacking, long-distance investing, etc.  

Also, look at where you are at in your life and see what makes sense for you.  Do you have money for a down payment? How much time do you have to devote to this?  What is your unfair advantage?  Everyone has one so figure out or decide what yours is.
