I have a hefty down payment saved up and good credit score to buy but I do have a part time job currently while attending school.

You can educate yourself through real estate investing books, listening to podcasts from notable investors who’s techniques match your interests, or read blogs posted under major finance blogs such as Forbes.Another way to educate yourself is to attend workshops that can offer hands-on knowledge.

I've posted this before, but if you want to invest in a new area, my advice is to spend some time attending meetings of local investor groups to get the lay of the land.

@Johnelle Stevenson When I first started I attended REI groups, went on Facebook, went to local auctions, messaged individuals on Bigger Pockets, used Propstream, Bandit Signs, Trading Buyers List with people that are in the same area.

I’d recommend attending some of the meet ups once the whole lockdown is over.

My sister was renting an apartment in downtown Denver.

His conference is one of the best conferences I have attended in terms of actionable steps.

I would also recommend attending your local REIA (probably by Zoom right now).

I also thought about using proceed to by rentals in TN as well.As I’m in Denver now I could commit 6-9 am working my daily plan (bell rings at 7:30 here).

I’ve read books, watched shows, and attended seminars.
