What's the best way to start investing?

Good afternoon! I haven't started my real estate investing journey just yet, but I do want to get some advice or opinions about what's best when it comes to getting your first rental property as a beginner. I've heard that starting off by doing BRRRR might not be the best way to start since it comes with a lot of problems and with buying and renting it out once you're done with renovation. I've heard some people say the best way to get into real estate is to buy a turnkey property since everything is done.

I don't have any debt at all, I have a 778 credit score, and I have about $35,000 in liquid. I don't have 2 years of work history, but I do plan to work a W2 job until I start seeing progress in my rental estate journey.


I love to hear all your responses!
