19 Year old starting out in NOVA!

Hello BP!

Been lurking around for a while now and figured it was time to go ahead and make an account. Long.. well, short story short, I am 19 years old, located in the Alexandria, VA area, and very excited to start learning about real estate investing and sales! I have read several books on the subject but I have yet to really get out there and try it myself. I'm not sure if people will take me seriously at my age, hah! One of the challenges that I am facing is the price of living in this area. As a 19 year old, my income to expenses ratio is not great enough to really dive in yet, but i'm getting there! :) Any advice for a young kid in my situation would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Glad to be a part of the site!

Your youth is only a disadvantage in your mind. You are only young once use it to your advantage. You are young, motivated, full of energy, hungry, trying to make your mark on this world. Who would not want to do business with you.
