Should I attempt to begin my investing career while in school or just continue reading and learning and wait till after school when I have more time available?

So we continue to chat and I give him my offer which is about 5k off asking.

Continue gathering information and making sure you are ready to strike when a good deal shows up.

Thanks for all of the great information in the forums- it's been very educational!

I would like to continue Investing, but unsure if I take the job where I would like to live that it wouldn’t actually some what cripple my investing career.

Im essentially taking these investments as an educational experience as well as investing at the same time (Win-Win).   

Part of my background and education is in IT so I am wondering if that will come easier to me.

If bigger investors pay more money, I simply lost the $35 "processing fee" on my deposit and the due diligence will have been good practice - relatively cheap education.1/2) ...in general its state specific for instance in FL it is true they can be redeemed until the second before sale however after you're pretty much done for (however if its a valuable property and any of the previous owners in the chain of title have a bit of cash to throw around you'll be forced to defend yourself in court which can be pretty expensive).

Would I just continue to buy one house at a time or would it be better to try to scale up (larger package of sfh or small multis) I work a steady job and my strategy right now is buy and hold.
