Hello!! im a high school student and I’m very interested in real estate investment and would love to hear some suggestions on how to get started. Specifically, I’m interested in house hacking as a way to begin practicing real estate after I graduate from college.

Can anyone share some learning directions, tips, or experiences? I’m excited to learn more and dive into this field. Thank you!

Quote from @Celine Rechyy:

Read some books. Make sure you understand the basic math, what qualifies as a good investment, how to manage your investment and prevent losses, etc.

I would start with Set For Life by Scott Trench. Good financial information and he explains how he started with house hacking.
