Hey everyone hope you and your family is going well. Glad to be in this awesome community

I am currently 17 as I stated. I have about 5 months till I am 18. I am saving up to buy the first rental property. Currently I am reading books from bigger pockets. And doing listening to the podcast and taking notes.

What’s yours advice on a beginner. And maybe even your young self starting out. Any action that I could take right now?

Anyways I am happy to be here and would love to talk to some people and any help would be appreciated thanks

@Roshan Khadka read Rich Dad Poor Dad if you have no already. If you can, get qualified to get a home loan, even if you have to get a co-signer, and find a property you can house hack. A house hack is where you live in one portion of the house and rent out the other. It could mean living in one side of a duplex and renting the other or buying a house with a mother-in-law suite and renting that out like I am currently doing. Or you could rent rooms. There are several different ways you can do it but they all allow you to live for cheap/free/maybe even make a little all while learning how to manage a rental.
