Newbie desiring to learn, and implement.

[Joseph Biscoe]

I'm somewhat new to real estate investing. At 27 years old, I want to provide a stable future for my young family. I'm currently half-way through the Beginners Guide to real estate investing. I like the vehicle of multi-family unit investing, and I'm thinking of going with the buy-and-hold strategy. Can anyone provide info on this setup? Is a good strategy? What are some key things to think about? I'm currently located in NW Florida. Thanks, Joe
