@Daniel Hanson Thank you for your thorough list on how to proceed! I just started analyzing some deals in the areas that I would be interested in, and I realized how much I still have to learn. I guess it's time to keep practicing!
Also, based on your first two points, what is your preferred way of meeting or getting in touch with real estate agents that understand the investing side of the real estate business?

Thank you for your reply Michael!
That is a really good point, and to be fair, I do spend the vast majority of my day doing dentistry and learning the in's and out's of the profession.
You're also right, it wouldn't really be worth it to go shovel sidewalks and what not, despite my do-it-yourself attitude.
That being said, I do still have at least 3-4 hours a day where all of my dental responsibilities are taken care of. This time was once filled by taking ridiculous course loads, but now that I spend more time in clinic, I don't have nearly the after school commitment that I once had. So I hope to fill it with a furthered education into making passive income and running a business.
Thank you for your guidance! It is quite easy to get lost in the belly of the real estate beast. I'll definitely be looking to make some connections in the Real Estate profession, while avoiding the loss in time and expertise in my own profession.
Your response is much appreciated!

Hey everybody!
So, some quick background info. My name is Adam, I am currently in my 3rd year of Dental School. While I am totally new to real estate investing, I have always been interested in real estate. At this point in my career, I can make the time to get started.
Starting this year, I've been reading books on real estate including "The Ultimate Beginners Guide to Real Estate Investing" "Investing in Real Estate with no (and low) Money Down" and "The Book on Rental Properties". I've also been reading a variety of blogs on biggerpockets and I will be going to my first REI meet up this weekend.
I would really appreciate it if I could get someones advice on anything else that I can/should be doing in order to be "adequately" prepared and educated to make my first deal?
Also, fun question, if you could go back in time and advise yourself when you were just starting out in Real Estate Investing, what would you say?
Thank you!
