Newbie in Nashville, TN

[Dennis L Lewis Jr]

Hi all,

My name is Dennis Lewis, I am a 25 year old Designer at an Electrical Engineering company. Partially went to school at Morgan State University ( Baltimore, Maryland) for Architecture and Design, which I currently hold an Associates Degree in.

Ive always had an interest with anything to do with residential/commercial housing market, recently decided to take the initiative to start researching and gaining information about real estate investing. My plan is by the time im 30 to hopefully have a few flips and or properties under my belt. I plan to still work at my full time job once things get going. 

So for someone like myself, where do I start? If you were to put yourself back in my position what are some things you would have done different when first starting out?

Thanks in advance, I look forward to meeting/learning from you all.

-Dennis
