Best option for a newbie?

hello everyone!

I am looking for some advice on my next steps in this journey I'm embarking on. I am in the US military so i don't have a lot of  but enough time to start investing in real estate. I leave for deployment in about 6 months or so and am going to be saving up some money to invest when i get back. I am here to ask if there is anything i can do before i leave and the next six months to get my foot in the door and immersing myself in the culture of this world. I am 22 years young and a woman and also nervous that people won't take me seriously. I want to start networking and figuring out what i can do to set myself up in the best way for when i get back. Any input is helpful! Thanks in advance!

Network as much as you can. Learn the business inside and out. Then find a mentor locally who you can spend time with and learn what they are doing locally.
