College Student in Cleveland Excited to Learn about REI

[Brandon Chung]

Hi everyone,

My name is Brandon Chung, and I am currently a first-year college student in the Cleveland area. I'm interested in learning more bout real estate investing, and I currently have the goal of, after fulfilling my two-year on-campus housing requirement, buying a house to house hack starting in the summer going into my junior year (about 13-14 months away from today). I'm excited to meet everyone here and grateful to be part of such a welcoming community.!

Hi Brandon, welcome to BiggerPockets! It is a great place to learn about real estate investing. I understand your excitement about taking the plunge into real estate investing. It's a thrilling and rewarding world, but it can also be overwhelming for newcomers. My advice would be to start small and do your research. Educate yourself on the local market, network with other investors and agents, and always have a solid plan in place before making any investments. 

Since you're interested in house hacking, sharing with you this article with more information on what a house hack is - https://www.rocketmortgage.com/learn/house-hacking. House hacking is what I did in Columbus, Ohio when I started investing in 2020.

Good luck on your journey and feel free to reach out if you ever need any guidance or advice.
