I'm just starting to learn and I'm desperate for any advice.

High, I'm 22 and only have fair credit. My dream is to invest in real estate and make money and be financially independent. I know its possible and I'm determined I WILL SUCCEED. I just dont know how yet, I'll try until I find out on my own if I have to but I'd like to cut that time in half. If you were in my position with only $5,000 to use as a downpayment and only fair credit, what steps would you take to make as much money as possible in as little time as possible? I need to make enough money so that I can start acquiring cash flow properties but how can with only $5,000? I know I'm capable but I dont know how to get the information I need to get my start. Im desperate for advice and guidance, I will greatly appreciate anything I can get, thanks!

Kudos for your drive. Keep studying and saving. One book that helped me is The Millionaire Real Estate Investor by Gary Keller. It's more of a step-by-step playbook...and it's free to listen to on YouTube ;)
