@Ray Harrell Thanks for tip! I completely agree with you. I’d. like to get out there and get my feet wet as soon as I possibly can. After reading some of the stories on here just gets me so motivated and excited. But I do feel that there’s more for me to learn before I can get out there. I’m learning more each day on this forum. Thanks again!

@Michael Harrington Thanks for responding! Where can I get more information on this. I would love to check it out and see if this is something I can get on board with. I’m always looking to learn!

@Lennon Lee Thank you for the recommendation. I’m grateful that you took the time to help me. Yes, I am interested in buying a multi family building. After some reading, I felt that it’s the best way for me to get started in real estate. My goal is to gain some experience and invest bigger apartments. I love the idea of passive income and flipping. I do understand that there’s a lot of work I would have to put in and I’m willing and able. I want to be able to quit my job at some point and completely dive in to this business. Again, thank you for the recommendation on the book. I will check it out ASAP.

@Dylan Marma I’m truly grateful that you took the time to give me your advice. Yes, I’m interested in buying an apartment building like triplex or a 4 plex. After reading the article that was recommended above, I feel that this is something I can serious take action in sooner that I thought. However, I live in Philadelphia and don’t know much about the market. I’m thinking that I can try to get a fha loan and start there. I don’t have much savings at the moment but I am working on that. You are right about researching a mentor. I feel that it’s a bit hard to find a good that’s not trying to sell me a “system” to make money in real estate. I have learned a lot reading on BP and I feel that with some more research and savings I can take action soon. Please feel free to respond with anything you feel that would help. I really appreciate everyone that’s responding. You guys are truly great people. The best forum/group I’ve ever join by far.

@Andrew Fredrickson Thank you for taking the time to help. These are such great recommendations. I will get started on it. Thanks again!

@Garrett Sowle Thank you for the great suggestions! I’ve read richest man in Babylon. Love that book. I will take your advice and read rich dad poor dad as well. I don’t know what house hacking is but I will look into it. Thanks again!

@David Wright Thanks for taking the time to respond. Are there any course online or offline that you can recommend?

Hello everyone, As the title said, I’m completely new to investing in real estate. I’ve been reading the forum and the responses and I have to say, you guys are very knowledgeable and very helpful. Please, as a complete newbie, what can you intelligent folks recommend as far as where to begin. Books, websites or anything to help me learn and get started. I want to be able to buy a property in ONE year. I’ve been reading up on it but when I found BiggerPockets, I feel like there’s so much that I don’t know. I live in Philadelphia and would greatly appreciate any advice. Thank you in advance to everyone that’s taking the time out of their busy schedule to help me.
