Hi Mason, awesome that you are already interested in real estate. Do you have a job and/or regular income? If you do not, I would recommend getting one and to start saving as much money as you can. If you are wanting to buy ASAP, I would talk to a few lenders and have them look at your situation. They should be able to give you more specific guidance on what would be needed in order to get a loan. It may take some time, but you will at least have some clarity on what you need to do.
