Hi, my name is Robert. I'm currently serving in the US Navy. I just passed my 7 year mark and I have a few more years left. I'm trying to get into real estate investing before I finish my time so when I do finish I can shift to full time investing and work my way to being financially free.

Hi Robert, 4 year USAF vet here. Thank you for your time, sacrifice and dedication. A lot of what you learn from the military is applicable in investing and keeping a steady unshakeable mindset.
There are lots of ways to get plugged into the Pittsburgh market if thats the market you're interested in.
Joe Calloway is a Navy vet and a big time investor in Pittsburgh. He has a lot of valuable education that could help you on your way.
Good luck and give me a shout if you're around town.
