Where should I begin?

Hello! I am a 15-year-old with virtually no experience trying to get started on my real estate journey and would appreciate any recommendations on what I should begin with.

@Gabe Shetler

Wow, this is awesome!!

Have you read THE RICHEST MAN IN BABYLON? Save at least 10% of everything you make starting now!

Read as many books as you can. Maybe get a job with a local apartment complex or property management company to begin acquiring knowledge. Work hard for them and pick their brains.

Take notes about what you see them do wrong, how it effects people. Take notes on what they do right, how it effects people. From that form your own future business plan. When you’ve saved enough money a good way to start is with a house hack. Buy a duplex, triplex, or fourplex and rent out what your not living in. You’ll have cash saved, experience, and a great way to live rent free and learn by doing.

Stick with it. I wish I would have started as young as you and kept going!!
