There are a lot of things you need to know. First, what is your budget? You want to be able to pay your rent (including utilities) with about one weeks worth of your monthly income so you have room to save as well as having money for groceries and other expenses.

If you have not already found an apartment, check the listings for your area first but don't be afraid to call a realtor to show you around. Think about location, needs, parking, etc. If you found a place make sure you have a written contract you can look over with the owner. Questions to ask: If something needs to be fixed who do I call? Are utilities included? If not what will I need to call for (ie: cable, internet, water, electric)?

Be thoughtful and make sure you have a good relationship established with your landlord because you are going to be living there, this will be your home. Good Luck.

Do you need a job to invest in real estate?

You don’t need a job but you need money or a skill. If you buy an apartment building, can you manage the apartment building? That is a skill. If you have that skill, then you should find a partner that has the money but not the time or skill to manage the apartment building. FLRealtyTeam
