I'd say house-hacking is one of the best ways to get into real estate investing.

Additionally, I'm banking on a future opportunity to refinance.After less than a year, here are a few tips from what I’ve learned:*Hire a local STR expert real estate agent to guide your investment location.

So sad to see this happening to real estate investors looking for quality companies with passive income that should last.

If the person is already negotiating and finding deals there are two options in my opinion:1) Hire a good real estate attorney and have them on retainer...pay a flat fee for looking over the contracts and doing title work2) Work directly with a title company and offer to pay them a higher fee to handle transaction coordination.  

I'm a real estate finance broker and love talking real estate leverage!

@John SleggStarting with flipping in real estate might not be good idea in HCOL area where everything is expensive and you pay lot of taxes.

As I take in as much content as possible from listening to the Rookie Real Estate podcast, I feel drawn to building multi-families and renting them out.

Or pay a real estate attorney a fee to help you draft one, a few dollars up front will help save thousands down the road should anything bad happen regarding the lease.

I am 20 years old and this year I decided to take my path into the real estate world.

@Duke Butterfield no one can really answer whether or not real estate is a good choice for you - except YOU!
