In the meantime watch the BP podcasts and use the BP calculator to start analyzing deals so you get comfortable with the numbers.By this time next year I would say if you do this you'll have 10k in a bank account with an ok credit which should make you eligible for an FHA loan to buy (1-4 Units) with 3.5% down and get you started. 

We don't charge any  up-front fees for this and it shouldn't be necessary, but do watch out for the upfront non-refundable "commitment fee" or "engagement fee."

I have watched a few videos, but I want to be able to learn from others and really get hands-on experience (In general, I want this to become my passion!)

The second violation gets them suspended until they watch a 5-minute video that addresses their violation and proper behavior, and then they pass a five-question test.

Hope you done get calls asking how to operate the TV remote or how to watch live sports!

Not to get too into the weeds, when you are face to face with someone, you can watch for mannerisms and non-verbal body language. 

I do not wish to waste my time watching videos,searching the internet for how tos and what I should be doing.

I like to garden in my free time, this summer i noticed how much we saved with the garden and I've been watching more videos on personal finance.

I learned the most from doing deals the most than watching podcasts so totally agree.You should be able to find more agents if you click on the "agents" tab on BiggerPockets

And after watching videos and familiarizing myself with the platform, plus I have determination, that I can absolutely get good at this.
