Buying My First Investment Property at 21

[Abby Blumenfeld]

At 21, I took a leap of faith and bought my first investment property—a fixer-upper in Hamden, Connecticut. I knew nothing about renovations, home ownership, or property management, but I had a vision, determination, and a mentor in my dad. I learned the hard way that every project takes twice as long and costs twice as much, but I stuck with it. That property is now a reliable source of rental income and a constant reminder that success starts with taking action, learning on the fly, and embracing challenges head-on.

Congrats! I am glad that I am not the only one who takes twice as long and spends twice as much, haha. In the end it will all work out.
