How “prepared” can you really be before investing?

I’m gearing up to buy my first property in April/May-ish. I’ve read constantly for nearly a year, listened to podcasts and cruised forums to use this brain as a sponge as I got my stuff together, in what’s about to be my first real estate rental property purchase.

But how prepared can you really be outside of experience? I’m constantly feeling like “I’m just another talker” If I’m not drowning my mind with real estate. Can anyone relate to this, or have any advice as to preparing when you’re about to pull the trigger on that first real estate move?

Appreciate all and any feedback!

@Martin Neal Thanks Martin, I appreciate your response! My hunger for the first property and ones to come, are unexplainable, I can’t wait.
