Newbie trying to get started while still in school

[Wyatt Szelest]

Hi everyone, I am looking to get started in the real estate investing space but I don't exactly know if I'm able to yet. I am currently living in Western New York as a college student (luckily with no student loan debt at the moment) studying accounting accounting and I am in my senior year so I still have two years of school left until I am eligible to get my CPA license as I am planning on becoming a tax accountant.

Is it too early for me to start trying to invest in real estate? I understand that not having a full time job can cause problems with finding financing and probably other aspects as well. I am very eager to get into this investing space because I have seen so many examples of how real estate is an amazing wealth building vehicle and also allows you to create so many connections with other likeminded individuals. I have been binging all of the bigger pockets content I could get my hands on for the past 4 months and have learned so much already. I have taken a great interest in BRRRR method and I am nervous about taking that first leap and starting my investing journey. I don't know if I am just having analysis paralysis or if real estate investing while being a full time student is just a risky idea.
