Starting out as an investor

Dillan Mamou
Posted

Hey guys! I’m 19 years old, turning 20 this year and I have about 25k in assets and savings and I’m getting my real estate license within the next 2 months! I plan on getting into investing very soon, but I’m not sure where or how to start. Do any of you guys have any suggestions or ideas? Thank you!

@Dillan Mamou- congrats! I would recommend The Book on Rental Property Investing by Brandon Turner. It is one of the first books I read about investing and it really got me informed about a lot of things I had no idea about before. I would say that the fact that you have savings is great! I would keep building that up. Also, get in touch with people in your area who are familiar with real estate and investing. By having you license you will have the opportunity to meet like minded people who love real estate. Also being on here will connect you with many people. There are so many amazing and knowledgeable people on here willing to share, welcome to the REI world!
