Hi everyone. Total newbie here. I want to get into real estate investing and have been reading as much as I can about it to educate myself. I would love any help I can get! I am interested in diving in full time to this. I know that most of you are very experienced and may not want to bother with a newbie such as myself but I am hoping to learn as much as I can from you guys and perhaps connect with someone who could take me under their wing and help guide me through my first venture into this new world. My goal is to be able to become financially independent within 3 years through real estate investing. Is that a realistic goal? Unrealistic? Feel free to let me know if I'm setting an unrealistic goal for myself! Thank you all so much in advance.
