Hello everyone my name is Glenn Lucas and I am an aspiring investor, I'm also new to bigger pockets and Real Estate. I was wondering if anyone had any advice or could shed light on the best way or ways for a young person with little money to start.

Welcome @Glenn Lucas ,

You'll find lots of good info in the "Learn" link across the top navigation bar, and in the link at the top of the new intro section. You can tag people by putting @ in front of their name, then clicking their name when it pops up at the bottom of the message box. You can click on the "vote" button if you like someone's post or is helpful. And you can earn "awards" for various "achievements" - just look at your profile. Hope that helps with the site!

On the investment side, after I got knowledgeable, I bought a 4plex with an FHA loan. I think that's the best way to go big with just a little capital. 3.5% down and they use the rents from the 3 other units to qualify you, so ups your purchase price a lot.. Just my 2 cents! Good luck with your investments Glenn!
