New to Charleston, SC, and new to real estate investing

[Tome Stojanovski]

Hello everyone! My name is Tome. I am new to bigger pockets and currently active duty Air Force stationed out in Kansas.  My enlistment is done it about a year, however, I am able to finish the last 6 months of my contract doing an internship/apprenticeship.  I am interested in learning as much as I can about real estate investing and am searching for an investor that can hopefully point me in a direction on the subject for an internship.  I am currently reading different books on the subject and have about 6 months of time before I would move to Charleston, however, the Air Force needs me to get these things settled well in advanced.  I have tried to contact a couple real estate investors associations in Charleston and haven't had much of any replies.  I am willing to learn all aspects of real estate investing, however, I do not know any contacts if there is any information anyone can give it would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
