Hey Ya'll - I am a college student who has been learning about real estate for the last couple of months. For all of you seasoned investors, I have a couple of questions for you....

I) If you had to start over today, what path would you take to get to financial freedom and how would you proceed in doing so?

II) What have been your key takeaways along this amazing journey?

III) What advice do you have for new investors looking to reach their goals?

IV) What is your favorite non-real estate activity😊?

Thank you all for sharing your wisdom - I can't wait to reach the level of all of you successful investors!
