I’m 22 years old with a 554 credit score looking for fourplex

I’m looking to get into real estate for the Financial freedom aspect of it. I would love to get a fourplex as my first property and house hack for a year or less with the long term goal being owning 60+ apartment units, commercial real estate and even just being in a real estate crowd fund. I’m not sure where to start even though I have just finished reading the bigger pockets rental property book. I’m located in the atlanta area which I believe is prime location for real estate and would love to capitalize off it it.

@Shondell Alford First two things you want to do are 1) get your credit score up and 2) start socking away money for a downpayment. Once you're score is up in at least the mid-600's (preferably 700's for best interest rates/terms) and you've got enough saved for a down payment you'll be ready to look for your first property. Then it's really just a rinse and repeat, where you then save up another down payment and buy your next one, etc. Good luck!
