Should I buy a rental property at 19

I’m 19 and I’ve been looking into buying as holding a rental property. should I do it? Or should I go another route like a fix and flip? Another thing to add is I don’t have the funds to buy a property, as most 19 year olds do not, how would I go about finding the funds to do so? Any advice is much appreciated.

Hey @Orion Hernandez

Congrats to you for your ambition! I suggest you look into house hacking. Learn as much about that as you can. Bigger Pockets actually has a book on it called The House Hacking Strategy written by @Craig Curelop. If you are looking to connect with someone for some guidance or advice, feel free to reach out to me. I recommend you read this article I wrote for Bigger Pockets titled How to Invest in Real Estate Before Turning 21. Once you've read it, let me know your thoughts and if you have any questions. I am a high school teacher in Colorado and I am always looking to help young people get started in real estate investing or help in any way I can. Let me know if you want to chat sometime. https://www.biggerpockets.com/..@Craig Curelop
