New to BP: Beginning Investor

Hi all. My name is Raju Pothuraju and I am a real estate investor who ended up with three out of state properties acquired during the last housing bubble. I would like to follow John Schaub's advice of buying single family homes in my town (SpringField, VA) with a buy and hold strategy to build wealth.

Two of my out of state properties are in Dayton, OH area(positive cash flow) and one in SOcal (negative cash flow but solid equity). 

Since I mainly jumped into real estate investing about 10 years ago without really having a plan I am all ears to any advice you may have as I get back into investing.
