Strategy to get into RE Investing

[Brady Smith]

Hello all,

I am new to this site so please forgive me if I am not posting this in the correct place. 

I am about to graduate college and have a job lined up where I will be making a little under 150k a year. I have always wanted to invest in real estate but do not know where to start. I plan to live at my parents house for a while as my job consists of working 4 weeks then have 4 weeks off so I don't think it would be smart to buy my own place just yet when I will not be home for half the year. 

Does anyone have any recommendations on where to start or learn more about RE Investing for this sort of situation? I will have a decent amount of cash coming in with very little expenses, so would it be smart to spend a lot of my income on rental properties? Would waiting a year or 2 and save most of my income to buy a duplex or something of that smart be a good strategy?

Any ideas or comments would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you very much.
