This probably implies FIRE in his 20s, but I hope he is passionate about the path he has chosen and excels at it until at least a more traditional retirement age.He started the 2nd rehab he is leading.  

You can easily self manage 1 property with Zillow and Excel.

Does anyone have any excel/spreadsheet templates they use for organization and having a place where you store that budgeting and timeline information?

For analytical activities I still leverage trusty Excel and other data crunching tools. 

I stumbled on bigger pockets and was hoping to download those excel templates and to learn more about real estate.

@Vhernadette SasingI would look into finding an excellent operator and invest with them passively.

I'm aware of your investing initiatives as we are part of the MTR investor group that meets every Friday, which is excellently run by you.

EXCELLENT response to the question. 

(Only if you are SERIOUS about real estate as your wealth/career vehicle.)Make sure you join a brokerage that is large, established, and has a reputation for top performance and excellent training.Once you learn the basics and get out into the field to see the state of the market, you'll learn the price points and be able to know a good/great deal when you stumble across it.I have made some of my best (most lucrative) buys from meeting with a seller who wants to list, and when we discussed the price, I knew it fit my parameters, so I bought it! 

You can find excellent resources on YouTube, BiggerPockets, and through local REI meetups.
