Any advice on rental property Investing with no experience?

[Sean Chatman]

Hello!

I’m new to Biggerpockets and I’m a 19 year old aspiring to be a rental property Investor so that I may build wealth in the long run.

It may seem crazy but I have a goal of getting 60 rentals within the next 5 years, I’d like to split my portfolio between single family and multi family homes but as for now, I am going to mainly focus on single family until I get more accustomed to the game.

I’d like to know what you guys think on these questions so that I may better grasp knowledge from experienced individuals.

1. What are some of the most important things to look at when determining if a property is a good investment?

2. What are some creative ways to fund a property if the cash isn’t always on hand?

3. What are some videos or books you believe have changed your real estate intelligence for the better?

And

4. What advice would you give yourself if you could go back to the very beginning of your real estate journey?

Thanks!

Sean C.
