I think this approach is fascinating, and would love to hear how it works out over the long term. 

I'm a corporate attorney but I've always been fascinated by real estate.I got lucky and sort of fell into house-hacking in a condo in an up-and-coming neighborhood in Brooklyn and also recently picked up a 4-unit building in the same neighborhood with a nice projected cash flow.

I am fascinated by rehabs so that is what I am currently seeking.

I have been extremely fascinated with real estate for the past year or so and am now ready to take the jump into it within the very near future.

I have always been fascinated with real estate but never knew how to get started because I thought I needed to have tons of cash to start.

I started reading the book "Investing in real estate with no and low money down" and I was really fascinated with the longest chapter in the book which was about wholesaling.I just wanted to know what should be the first thing I do to begin?

Fascinating response Laird. 

To tell you a little about myself, I am a 20 year old student who has always been fascinated by REI (house flipping in general) and I want to learn the game and take over the Southwest Florida area.

I find it fascinating really.  

It's like reading a fascinating novel.
