If it was that easy, everyone and their brother would be doing it, and succeeding.

There are many factors that are much more important than age in determining if someone is ready to start investing in real estate such as knowledge of the local market conditions, personal financial situation, having a plan in place and the knowledge needed to execute, and the skills needed to succeed in the area of real estate investing one is looking to become involved in.

They both also have the quality I described above which is the desire to teach and joy of someone succeeding not just to make money for themselves.

There is so much great content available and the people from-- newbie to seasoned investors sincerely want to see others succeed.

Wherever you decide to go, just remember flipping and rehabbing property is a hands on business and to succeed, you have to work very hard until you build up your productivity.

Glad to see someone else on here that is young and has the drive to succeed!!!!

The rest of the time it's like listening to a seashell.I understand it's a business, but the way to succeed is not to always take, take, take.

Sure, the "fun" factor might be lower, but you have to make sacrifices in life to succeed and get out of the rat race. 

The second person has no really high paying job and wants to get out of what they are doing and wants to succeed by doing something in RE either flipping it in some manner buying foreclosures etc etc.. well this is were the rubber meets the road.. if you have limited resources then your only hope to make money in the business is basically selling RE. in some manner be it wholesale flipping.. getting a RE license.. working as a RMLO ,, working in the leasing business etc.. and to succeed at that you better be a very good sales person because that is what it generally takes.
