Advice For a Newbie Fresh out of College

Kyle Rosenberg

Hey everybody,

I just recently graduated from Temple University and will be starting my job as a high school math teacher in the coming weeks. I am very new to real estate investing, and am looking to save up money to be able to put a down payment on a rental property (deciding between Single Family Residence and Multiple). If anybody has some advice on the best ways to save or perhaps explain how it is possible and if it is a good idea to purchase a property with 0% down, it would be greatly appreciated!

Reading the book Rich Dad, Poor Dad is what made me intrigued in passive income with rental properties and I am currently reading The Book on Rental Property Investing and plan on reading the other BP books as well. If anybody has any book recommendations or other good sources of information on investing in rental properties, please let me know!

Thanks and I’m looking forward to sharing this journey with all of you.

Kyle Rosenberg
