A Tad Bit Confused

[Ryan Charles]

So I'm beginning my career in real estate and I'm very excited!! So far I know I want to focus on single and multi family houses and I'm interested in the buy-and-hold niche as well as flipping. I'm a tad bit confused on how I should handle fixing my credit so I can take out a loan to purchase my first house. I live in New York City and recently got a full time job to support myself but I don't want to lose track of what I really want to do. I'm eager to jump in and get started but I think it'll take forever between fixing my credit and working my full-time job. Help please!!!!!!
