Start by joining local real estate groups, narrowing your approach to strategies like house hacking or multi-family investing, and building a team of professionals like agents and lenders.

I'm new to real estate investing, but have thrown myself into learning as much as I can by joining a Veteran based investment community, have been working with my realtor and looking daily for potential multi family properties in the Dallas area for house hacking, which I've set myself an deadline to be completed by May.

Just make sure the town is ok with the land being zoned for multi-units, and look into construction costs, financing options, and permits ahead of time.

I have built enough capital to feel comfortable investing heavily and am interested in either a flip, small multi family, or commercial.

Multi family properties on the other hand tend to be more lucrative with numbers, especially if you are open minded to different strategies.   

I bought several multi-family this way and negotiated financing terms that were better than the bank.Cody Davis started investing at 19.

Live in the multi-family for a year, then move back into your own home and rent out the unit.If if not ideal, it's worth the hassle. 

Other notes: - Higher density multi family properties can be very hard to secure on the coast, but very profitable.
