Hello, my name is Ervin I am new to BP. I am located in Houston, Tx and currently moving to Aurora, Colorado. I am Active Duty Army and I just built up the courage to buy
my first income property which is a single family home. Now I am headed to Colorado, I will most likely hire a property manager or debating on whether to manage and place a tenant in it myself. I should be closing on it next month and still excited and nervous as well. Please let me know if you have any advice or suggestions. Thanks

Hi Ervin, and welcome to BP! I’m a ‘fix and hold’ investor from the Bay Area in CA, and loving it! But you’ll find a variety of every type of investor on the site, and everyone is amazingly helpful. Some pointers for you: The "Learn" link across the top navigation bar has lots of great info, and so do BP members! You can click on the ‘vote’ button if you like someone's post or is helpful, and there are ‘awards’ to earn on your profile. And you can tag people by typing @ before you type their name, then clicking their name at the bottom of the message box. Welcome to the site, and good luck in everything!
