It's like they built their platform in the Bronze Age and its been held together with duct tape ever since. 

I am not saying that to brag, the reason I say it is we all wish we could get into real estate at a younger age - but we are all different and depending on your level of risk, sometimes being patient is not a bad thing as its a marathon not a sprint.  

@Bliss Hu,At your age, you’re well ahead of the curve. $300,000 is more than enough to acquire your first property, even in New Jersey.

As a fairly-newish-to-the-game investor around your age, I appreciate the candor.  

Hi all, was wondering if anyone has or intends to file a claim in the residential real estate broker commission anti-trust settlements.

It's a weird thing to be young and anti-W2 job.

How were you able to invest in real estate at the age of 16?

His teachings suggest a paid off home, $500k in assets, and more than 1 source of income (SS if of that age, real estate, part time job, retirement/pension, etc.).

And in certain markets like SF bay area if the sewer line is of a certain age its mandatory to replace it before close of escrow its a law.

Yep, I already knew that I won’t retire by my job ages before I started working, this job is just the pathway for me to open my own business.
