How you beat the fear of investing and just went for it

BRAND NEW to the world of real estate investing. Currently educating myself as much as possible before feeling ready to get out there and start networking and making deals. Two minutes after I finished “Investing in real estate with no and low money down”, my phone rings and it’s a local real estate broker returning my inquiry for distressed properties in my area that I submitted months ago (just to see what was out there). I now have a meeting tomorrow to discuss with an agent and a follow up with the broker Thursday.

What would you suggest to someone with no experience that I should be asking or communicating to a local real estate agent on helping me get started in the right direction and not wasting anyone’s time.

Thank you!

What helps me is to just put it on paper. Write down the step by step process of what needs to happen between now and having your first rental rented out. Break it down into substeps, who do you need to help you (agents, contractors, property managers, etc), and when do you want it done by? Now you've got your plan in place and all you have to do is execute!
