Tips for a newbie starting out in real estate investing

[Jose Mancia]

Hey everyone! My name is Jose and I am new to BiggerPockets! I just wanted to ask if anyone could give me any tips on where to start with real estate investing? I am new to this area and would definitely enjoy to hear from some people who have experienced in this area. I am currently reading the book on 'Rental Property Investing' by Brandon Turner and so far I am enjoying it, but I figured I would join the BiggerPockets community for some more insight! Thanks!

Just some background information about me:

-I am in my mid 20's. - I currently have one more year of school left before I get my Bachelors in Business Management. - I currently reside in New Jersey.
