First time investment strategy advice

[Diana Gonzalez]

Hello Bigger Pockets Fam!

Glad to join this awesome group. I am a newbie when it comes to real estate. I currently work as a dental hygienist full time and am looking to expand into the world of real estate investing. I currently live in Albuquerque, NM and my partner and I are looking to buy our first property hopefully by the end of this year. I look forward to making awesome connections with people. (:

If you had to start over with $0 and all of the knowledge you have now, which direction would you take first?
