Get educated on how to buy a campground.

He just published a book on this with BiggerPockets and does a LOT in the space of trying to educate athletes on how to invest.

Been doing my own research and education for the past few months.

Additionally, don't hesitate to leverage the wealth of resources available through platforms like BiggerPockets, which can offer you everything from forums for asking questions to educational podcasts and webinars.Keep honing your skills, stay up-to-date with market trends, and be open to learning from every experience, both successes and setbacks.

You will also want to get your credit score as high as you can to secure the best interest rate.Third, educate yourself in your markets - attend local meet up's of real estate investors, stay reading and asking questions on this platform, read the books, listen to podcasts, watch the videos - I always like to recommend David Greene, he serves it up straight, informative and easy to understand.Finally, if you're looking to house hack a 3-4plex - I strongly recommend setting up systems to screen renters, collect rents, and be able to fix stuff (like a lot of stuff lol), And set up a system to manage your own books (you may want to connect with a loal bookkeeper), this is a business and if you treat as one from the gate, you'll put yourself in a good position.Hope this helps!

I'm uncertain though if it is Lake Norman specific, but North Carolina can be a good state for investing.Note: This information is for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute legal, tax, financial, or investment advice.

Quote from @Lucky Bleu: Hey everyone,I’m a recent college graduate (double major in Sport Management & Business/Marketing Education).

Networking will fast forward your education, help you to build a team and mentors and open your eyes to the many possibilities that real estate has to offer. 

I am brand new and still soaking in all the information and education I can get my hands on.
