I would suggest to connect to other local investors as much as possible to network, educate yourself, make connections with title companies, contractors, wholesalers, hard money lenders etc, those will prove vital to your success.

My PM told me I am better off putting my money in a HYSA; a few realtors I have spoken to are just desperate to make a commission... no thanks!

The duplex was expensive and with rates as high as they are, I was not able to save money house hacking.

Did this company give you any guarantees if you invest this money?

As a private lender would you pay the full 100%, or still do 75% Loan to Purchase price and have borrower put money in?

Yes, you should not start contacting real estate agents now if you don't have any money.

Personally, I negotiate for better price/seller credits + put more money down to min 1:1 DSCR and keep it gucci. 

That said, if you are in it for less than 100k, and somewhere around 30k out of pocket, then you don't really need to rent it all that much to make some money. 

I don't know what you would be pitching at 20 years old to get money so listen to @Chris Seveney.
