Absolute newbie from Southern Oregon

[Cody Pritchett]

Hello BP my name is cody from here in the beautiful Pacific northwest I live in Medford oregon with my wife and 3 kids. I am absolutely brand new to the entire realm of what is real estate. I currently work and have worked for the better part of the last 10 years as a professional tree climber/ certified arborist.  I have been interested in real estate for some time now but have been focused on getting my wife through college for the medical industry.   I am a complete knowledge junkie so any advice tips or tricks to help me on my journey I have open ears thanx
