My name is Thomas I’m currently in the construction field working on natural gas pipelines.

Where do I begin with Syndication and education on the process as well as laws in this field of REI?

I probably will start with a STR that’s a single family, since I have a mentor who is experienced in that field.

Not only do guests enjoy privacy, but your neighbors will too.   

If you enjoy listening to bigger pockets podcasts the more recent podcasts have touched on this subject and how we are in a different market and ways to handle it/prepare for the future. 

I am 22 years old and have $20,000 in cash saved up.I started my job last year in the medical field and make around $40k a year.

I want to try my hand at everything over time and see what I truly enjoy the most. 

I want people’s opinion on if I should use this 60k as a down payment on something that is currently livable and rent it. or try and buy a foreclosed home and try and flip it, I have construction experience and have been working in the field for 10+ years, just what some advice.

@Brandi Croom - you put it out there - so now you have to share :)  Better cash flow and appreciation - where are you seeing this promising market near you - or in a field of your expertise (always interested to learn)@Filip Reutov - I've invested out of state - and a lot in state. 

In all of this, make sure you take some time to enjoy life - real estate is a marathon, not a sprint.
