New to real estate investing
I’m graduating college in a few months and I have always been interested in real estate investing. I’m looking to start off either end of this year or next year to start investing in real estate but not sure where to start. I’m from Detroit Michigan and would love to buy a 2-4 unit place and make money that way, but I just feel like I have no idea how to do it. If you read this post can you please give me advise and tell me how you started out with real estate investing and what resources and platforms you use.
