First Investment Probably

Alyssa Hyman
Posted

Good morning! Iv been on the fence for the past couple years about Real Estate. I knew I wanted to get into the field but wasnt sure what avenue to take. Im very intrigued with investing and flipping. How should I approach my first step when getting into this business. 

Thanks!

Hey Alyssa! that's awesome that you're getting started so early. It can certainly feel daunting with all the information overload and variety of different avenues you can take. My go to rec is to start house hacking. Buy a SFH with a super low down payment and rent out the extra bedrooms. First step would be to connect with a local agent and lender in your area. They can help you refine your criteria and will help you get after it. Good luck on your journey!
