How did some of you save money for your first property?
In some of my previous posts, I have mentioned that I am a college student and have asked about some of the ways I should get into real estate. House hacking is the most significant recommendation by far so looking into that it would still take roughly 30k-45k to get into a property with an FHA 3.5% down, where I am currently at is super expensive hints why there is a tough time entering the market. So in saving what have some of you done to build up Cash as quickly as possible whether that being scaling your income or selecting a type of job or something I could do to grow my income as fast as possible. I feel like I am at crossroads because of what I have found myself in at this stage of life. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!
