Teen Real Estate Investing Preparation

[Jaylan Auguste]

Hi, my name is Jaylan and I am a 17 year old future real estate investor. I have read “Rich Dad Poor Dad” by Robert Kiyosaki, “How To Invest In Real Estate by Brandon Turner and Joshua Dorkin, and am currently reading “Long Distance Real Estate Investing” by David Greene. While I do have knowledge on the basics of everything I would like to know if could offer any advice on what they would do if they were where I am as a 17 year old looking for where to start. As of right now I want to wholesale as an introduction and that’s what I’m leaning towards the most for right now but if anyone could offer any insight on what I need to know that would be very much appreciated I have created a plan for when I turn 18 and now it’s just a waiting game and I want to absorb as much knowledge as I can so I can enter the world of real estate investing with confidence and awareness. Thank you for taking the time to read this I appreciate any feedback.
