Credit Building Question

[N/A N/A]

Hi all, I'm new here to the forums and to real-estate investing. I've been doing my homework for the past 4 or 5 months and I believe I'll be ready to make my first deal sometime this summer. The problem I'm having is that I'm currently graduating college, and I don't have much established credit. My plan on building my credit was to go and purchase a few houses with my father who is also a new investor who has good credit. We would co-sign for the mortgage so that I could build my credit as well as build a relationship with the lender we go through. Do you guys think this is a good way to go about establishing my credit?

Thanks in advance!
