Invested than lost everything and want to get involved again.

[Steven Whetten]

Hey guys I am new to BiggerPockets and wanted to get back involved with real estate again.  Some back ground I used to own a 4 plex when I was in the Army and had my property manager steal $10,000 from me when I was station overseas.  I then went to Colorado and bought a house when I still had the 4 plex.  I got medical chaptered out of the Army and when I moved down to Texas where I am located now I had my property in Colorado rented until my property manager stole over $14,000 from me.  When I reported it to the police they said it was a you say she say thing and had to take her to civil court.  I didn't have the money to take her to court but it is what it is she will get hers in the future.  But now I want to get involved back into real estate where I will be and able to manage or see what I have bought to hold or to flip.  If there is anything that I can start back off with not so great credit due to lost of money in the past.  I am located in San Antonio, TX and I have always had that deep desire to be invested into real estate.  Thanks for future comments on helping me out.
