No money, Job or Experience. Where do I start?
Hi everyone,
My name is Oscar and I'm a sixteen year old aspiring real estate investor! Last months I've been watching many biggerpockets podcasts and ordered some books that are on the way. I've truly learnt a lot and I feel like I'm progressing in my journey everyday. As my knowledge has grown I've started looking at properties.
The only problem is that I do not have money, a job or experience. Where do I start? Should I get a job to get cash for a down payment? Should I try to get a partner to finance a deal? Should I try to get a internship at a real estate agency? I'd love to hear your insight,
Thanks

In the US you need to be 18 to sign a real estate contract. Get a job. Save money. Build your credit.
