Investing while renting and going to school

[Dexter Kubi]

Hello

I'm currently renting a single family apartment and I want to get into real estate investing. I also going to school for my MBA which loans are deferred until I graduate a few years later. I have a decent credit score but a somewhat high Debt to Income ratio. What would you recommend in terms of investing in properties as well as getting financing? I believe there is a way to get involved in getting my first deal and I don't want to sit on the sidelines. Any advice is helpful. Kind regards.
