I’m still learning about rental investing

Hello! I’m still learning about real estate investing and was just wondering if you don’t have 2 years worth of work history can you still buy rental properties? I have 2 jobs and I make about $2,700 a month with no debt at all. I worked at my last job for 11 months from Aug 2022 to July 2023 can that count as a work history? If it doesn’t, can I get my parents to be a co signer?

I highly recommend exploring DSCR loans. These are rental property loans that look at the asset's rental income instead of your personal income.
