Newbie In Dallas, Texas

[Benesha Davis]

Hello Everyone,

I am a new to the real estate industry. I am interested in rentals currently. I listen to podcasts daily (Bigger Pockets & Rental Income Podcast) and I must say I a feeling a little overwhelmed just because this is unfamiliar territory for me, but I am excited and willing to learn. Does anyone have any suggestions on what else I should/could be doing to learn more about the industry or some suggestions on who I should follow on social media, youtube, etc. I am looking into purchasing my first home within a few months and I figured it I want to get into real estate and rentals I should look into house hacking and get a duplex/ four-plex or family home first.

I will admit that I know nothing about to housing market, I subscribed to Redfin, Trulia, and Zillow so I receive notifications daily. I believe I've found some decent deals but then again I don't know what I should or shouldn't be looking for so any help is greatly appreciated.
