Congratulations on getting yourself to the point where you know you want to invest in Real Estate - and also with a good amount of cash on hand for someone only 20 years old.Depending on your credit and job history, you could qualify for other type of loan programs, too.

I would love to get a job working as a property manager to get some experience and learn as much as I can.

But, I hesitate to use up what we have now on acquiring rentals and not have any left to acquire more or do the occasional flip for capital.So what we were thinking is to reverse that and try to get in on a couple of flip deals first to build up some more operating capital and then start buying rentals with the occasional flip along the way.

Two of these guys quit their jobs to focus on real estate for a little and are supported by their investments.Oh yeah, aside from these strong personal connections, I met my agent, property managers, lender, and inspector all through...you guessed it...Biggerpockets.I'm really not sure if any of these connections would have formed without Biggerpockets.

Hello All, I am new to Bigger Pockets and I recently started a Job in Commercial Real Estate working on a commission basis.

One of the earlier shows had a guest who advised that anyone starting out should get a job that surrounds you with people already in REI and allows you to learn a side of the business while still paying your rent.

He has a job as a cooker in a bar, earns about $1500 a month.

I like nursing as a profession because they will always have a job.

Great job on already establishing your team.

Yes you're still going to need 2 years of stable w2 income.However... since you were a college student and just got a job, some banks will allow that as long as you can prove that you are now working.Ask your bank if that will work for you!
