Advice for newbie

[Bailey Cocuzzi]

I am new to the real estate world and getting stuck on making my first move. Real estate is something I’ve taken an interest in the past few years by doing research, watching seminars/videos, ect., but I have no clue where to begin. Anyone that feels like they may be able to provide some advice/guidance, I would love to chat!

Hi @Bailey Cocuzzi, welcome to the community! It sounds like your off to the right start -- but watching some videos and doing some research -- keep doing that. The goal should be for you to home in on a few tactics to focus on for your first deal. Will you do a long term rental? A house hack? What market will you invest in? Once you have some direction, I think you'll find this community to be very eager to help you on your journey -- but only you can set your goals and intentions. So my advice would be to keep self-educating, ideally by reading some books, and listening to the podcast. Once you've done enough of that to have a goal, find an agent and a lender, learn to analyze deals (tons of good resources here on BP for that), and land a deal!
