Connecticut- looking to network, get into real estate and learn
I am a 22-year-old from Connecticut and I go to college outside of Boston studying finance. I want to start a career in real estate as soon as possible once I feel I have enough foundational knowledge. I'm looking to understand more about obtaining rental properties, how to purchase them, manage them, and how to properly take care of tenants. I am also interested in flipping properties and hope to do bigger deals in commercial real estate, as well as own a property management company in the future. I'm only hoping to get pointed in the right direction, thank you in advance!
Please let me know if there is a better place to ask questions like this here if at all, thank you.

@Kevin Finn welcome to BP. I have two rental properties in Stamford - a SFH and a condo. I bought them before I discovered BP, so they are solid deals but not home runs. Now that I've learned a bunch from the site my next deals will be better.
My advice to you - get a good job leveraging your degree once you graduate and max out that W2 income while you continue to learn real estate. Having W2 income will make it easier for you to borrow, allow you to accumulate cash reserves, etc.
