Starting in Real Estate

Jayden Kazantsev

I just turned 15, I live in the Denver area. I've been interested in Real Estate for a few months now. I've been reading all good books, (Rich Dad Poor Dad, Riches Man in Babalon, Guide to investing with low or no money down, etc..). All these books are really insightful and give me a lot of good information, but the best way to learn is to just do it. I can't legally own any real estate until I'm 16, and my parents wouldn't be willing to sign a contract to buy real estate in the first place (too risky). I want to do something, but I'm not really sure what to do. 

If you have any Idea that would be great. Thanks

@Jayden Kazantsev One of the hardest things for many people to understand is rehab costs/ working with contractors/ finding good contractors. Maybe try to get a part-time job working on residential construction sites to get an early education on material and labor costs and how a job-site is operated. If you have this figured out, it can set the stage for the future of your success.
