Beginning to buy rental property

[Adam Hollandsworth]

So I make around 35k a year(not much, almost minimum wage) and I’m looking to buy a property that can grow my income passively. I’ve been building my credit for over a year. I’m 19 now and have 8k in stocks that i can cash out on. What should I do to get that first property? Should I save more then buy in cash? Should I go and talk to my local realtor -and look and somebody available properties in my budget?
