Hello to All! I am new to the site and eager to learn and connect with others. I a 26 year old accounting and have always wanted to get into real estate investing. The only experience I have with real estate is buying my primary residence. I bought my place in 2012. It has always been my goal to get into the real estate market. The problem I've run into is "how". It would be helpful to get insight from people in these forums. Yes, I can research online, but nothing compares to discussing real experiences with people that have actually done it.
