Medical Student Looking to Get Started in REI

[Robert Burns]

Hi BP community! 

I am new to BP, and my name is Robert Burns! I will be attending medical school in the fall. I've been doing a LOT of reading and practice deal analysis. I hope to invest in a small multi-family as a house hack for my first property.... but I'm running into a problem.... 

My biggest questions, as a medical student I won't be employed and I won't have a salary for another four years. I have a decent savings for now, but I'm having trouble finding a lender who will consider lending to me under these circumstances. Any advice or recommendations? 

If their are any other med students/physicians here I'd love to hear how you started in REI!
