Any advice is helpful!

Hello ! I found out about BP when I was reading Brandon Turners book on "Rental Property Investing " and I have just been doing my research for the past 2-3 months.  I currently have a construction management intership lined up for me during the summer but after that I plan on really taking on this real estate adventure.

I plan on house hacking my first property, any advice ? 

Also I later plan on using the BRRRR method, my father runs a small construction company and has been in construction for over 25 years. I just recently helped him get his GC license so finding a contractor is not an issue. I convinced him to invest but we both need some knowledge so any advice on that is greatly appreciated!

Brandon Turner's book was the perfect start for me! I was hooked, and I haven't stopped learning and growing in this industry since picking it up a little over a year ago. The RE Rookie podcast from Bigger Pockets is FANTASTIC! Soak in every episode you possibly can. David Greene has a great book on BRRRR. Being that you have a construction start (I am so jealous because this is a HUGE plus for you!), you may not need the book on estimating rehab costs by J Scott; it's great if you want to check it out though! If you're planning on keeping properties as LTR, I HIGHLY recommend Heather Turner's (Brandon's wife) book on managing rental properties. There's a meetup--red stick investors group--here in BR that is great for meeting other people in RE and learning. I'm happy to be a friendly face if you ever want to check it out! Investing is my first and primary love, but I'm also a realtor in BR. I'd love to chat any time about all things RE!
