[James Johnson]

I'm new to the community and I just wanted to introduce myself... My name is James and I'm from Upper Marlboro, Maryland.  I've been lurking on the website for quite some time now just soaking up information. I am currently finishing my Masters and work as a data analyst in DC.  March 2014, I became a first time home buyer and recently I've been thinking about investing in real estate. My goal is to learn as much as I can about the various options in real estate investing so that I can start generating passive income. 

Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
