If you are going to self-manage than at a minimum you need to learn about the laws and leases.

I believe my experience in the market can be valuable for both buyers and sellers, but I'm also eager to learn more about building a strong real estate investment portfolio.I'm particularly interested in BRRRR strategy, short-term rentals, and multifamily investing.While I sleep, eat, and breathe real estate most of the time, I also enjoy sports (go Vols!)

This is a horrendous idea for a young person who knows nothing about landlording and pre-supposes you can get a property first.Spend the last time in college learning and going to local meetups.

I am new to this game and learning more. thank you

My goal is to start learning and hope to buy my second (we own our current home) property within the year to start my real estate investment journeyI got interested in Real Estate investing because I want to be able to have a large family and give them everything they need (college tuition, family trips, emergency fund) and want to grow a portfolio with constant cash flow to allow for these things. 

I would be most worried about finding good lead sources, learning how handle the leads you get, and figuring out how to properly comp / analyze properties . 

I've been sucked in lately, and been learning all I can; I'm 21 currently, with a goal to own 5 cash-flowing rentals by the time I'm 30. 

I happen to know that postal delivery people scan all items prior to leaving the post office, and not when they actually delivery the item.

I learned more on that one than any other.  

It’s a bit of a learning curve, but can be worth it for the potential benefits.As always, chat with a tax professional to make sure you’re on the right track and taking full advantage of the benefits.
