How do I️ get started?

Hello everyone, my name is Dan Daley and I’m an aspiring real estate investor. I️ am a 22-year-old recent college grad, currently living at home on Long Island, NY and work in NYC as a Credit Analyst on Wall Street. Having spoken to some investors, I was advised that if I️ wanted to get started, I️ should consider moving out of state. I️ am strongly considering the owner-occupied “house hack” strategy in a market near a growing financial hub. I️ am open to the possibility of moving out of state to a city with better prospects for deals, cheaper cost of living, and job opportunity (you know, to hedge my bets). How could I️ get started? How much money should I️ start out with? I️ would appreciate the opportunity to connect with anyone and hear your advice. Thank you!
