Hello!
Full disclosure, I am a 24 year old untraditional undergraduate student at a Texas state college. I work full-time and go to school full-time majoring in Statistics. Sadly, I still live at home with the parents. I've got 9 more months of school! Luckily, I live a frugal life and am able to save close to 60% of my income. In all, my income is close to ~50K a year.
I have been juggling the idea of buying a rental property for some time now. I always read mixed advice and thought I would get more professional advice by joining this website. Specifically I am looking at buying either a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom house and renting out the two extra rooms or buying a duplex/triplex and renting out the extra houses.
I'm going to start digging and reading the FAQ while asking questions. Thanks for all the help in advanced!
