Rookie Investor from Atlanta

Hello all! 

I'm Trey, a 24 year old Atlanta native (ATLien?). I have always been very interested in real estate, and upon graduating from college tried my hand at bird-dogging, wholesaling and agency. If these endeavors taught me anything, its that id much rather be the investor! Now, I have started a semi-comfy career in medical sales, I now have had the chance to save some money in the hopes of purchasing my first deal in 2020. 

I would love to hear from some seasoned investors, the greatest piece of advice you'd have for a rookie like me. I'd also love to be able to connect with some experienced investors in the area, so that I may expand my network. I'm energetic, hungry, and hoping to one day gain financial freedom through RE Investing! 

Thank you in advance for all replies

- Trey

Welcome Trey!

With little experience, your best first move might be a house hack or live in flip!  And you are right, being the investor is better than a bird dog, any day of the week!
