Hello everyone,

Like my username states, my name is Andrew Saquing and I am from Camarillo, California. I am 19 years old and will be attending Arizona State University this coming fall as a junior.

I joined this site because I am interested in building wealth through real estate. I figure the earlier I start learning, the better. At this point in my life, I am basically just trying to read anything I can get my hands on, and BiggerPockets definitely has a large amount of information for me to go through.

I am also currently in the process of obtaining my real estate license. I am not sure what I plan to do with it, but I thought that it may be a good place to start in my RE education. If anyone has any help or suggestions in this area that would be great.

Looking forward to making some connections and becoming a contributing member of these forums.

-Andy

    Welcome to BP Andy! Well, at 19 and being a junior in college, you're ahead of the curve, Congrats!

    You'll get ideas as to what to do with your RE license as you attend the school and talk to others. That's a great way to start and learn the basics of RE. Good luck!

    Financeexaminer- Thank you for the encouragement. It can't hurt to start early!

    Chris G.- That sounds like a good idea, I may take you up on that. Thank you as well for the encouragement.

    That is definitely something I was looking for but couldn't find in this area. I will make sure to be there.
    Thanks!
