College Student Starting

Courtney Olinger
Posted

Hello! I’m a college student very interested in investing in real estate. I’ve been looking into it for a few years now and have finally come up with what I think may be enough money to invest in some thing and begin my journey. I live in San Diego and there isn’t much around my area but I will be able to afford, I have been told to stay close to home in the beginning. I have about $17,000 and I have been waiting for the market to drop like it has been presumed to in the next year or so! I was thinking about starting with a single family home that I would live in and fix up, and then use the equity to buy another property to rent and then snowball from there. I was interested to know what people who have been doing this for years might think, or what kind of advice you may have! Anything helps, thank you!
