Been thinking about this question a lot as I work with many real estate investors and I plan to be one myself. Let the fun begin!

@Caitlin Logue 

A smart person will learn from their mistakes, a wise person will learn from others mistakes. Don't be afraid to fail and just do it. 

Be conservative when you run your numbers on rents with prices/interest rates. Having a learning mindset when doing your first/few deals - it's like tuition. 

House-hacking a duplex/triplex/fourplex is one of the best/easiest ways to get your feet wet. You live in the property and learn how to self-manage/maintenance/lease units when tenants come and go.
