I just want to share from the bottom of my heart how grateful I am for such wonderful people taking time out of their day to help me out! I know I am young but I am hungry to keep learning about real estate investing. I'm 1000% more interested in this than anything I'm learning in school. The BP community is honestly so amazing! I really would like to go network with people and attend meetups (which I'm actively searching for). I have been watching Dave Ramsey for some time now and understand how to become financially free and how to be smart with your money. At my current job, I am trying to soak up as much knowledge as I can from my bosses to have that information for the future. 

When I graduate next year, I'll walk out of college with no debt and about 15k in the savings. What are the first steps I should do in order to get into investing? 

Thank you, everyone, for posting on my forum!

I would also like to say that for 2.5 Years have been working at an apartment complex as a leasing agent. I understand most of the due diligence of acquiring new tenants, how to manage and how to keep tenants happy. Anyone interested in taking me under there wing would be greatly appreciated. I have made a goal to make 50 Million by the time I'm 50 yrs old! (but i hope sooner)

Hello BP Community,

I am currently 20 years old, still in college studying business management but have had an interest in real estate for several years now. I have been following BP for a while and been invested in Youtube videos about all the different aspects of real estate. I currently live in Chicago, IL but in the next 5+ years would like to more somewhere in Texas (Maybe around Dallas). I have been watching every penny I spend and saving everything in order to invest when I have enough. I just would like to hear/learn from experienced investors!!. For the past couple of weeks, I have been analyzing properties using BP calculators and trying to best understand the Texas market. If anyone would be kind enough to share some tips for a newbie and how to best manage money (House hacking?) or getting into my first deal and growing exponentially not linearly it would be greatly appreciated. This community is awesome and full of such intelligent people, I wish I could shadow everyone!  

Thanks!
