My name is James Hames and am an active duty soldier transitioning to the civilian world. I am interested in investing in real estate. I am very new to this and am looking for knowledge on how to invest the "right" way.

Thanks! We always appreciate the support!

I'm currently reading books to build an overview on how the whole business works. I'll keep BP updated if I have any questions, which I definitely will. Thanks for looking out!

@James Hames

Nice to meet you. Have you already moved to Vegas? Where are you moving from. Will be in Vegas next week, not sure if we could connect but if not stay in touch. May have some connects for you, not sure exactly what your plan is, maybe you are still working on that.

Hope to see you around here.

@Steve Haight

Nice to meet you too! I haven't moved to the area yet. I am currently still on active duty status stationed at Fort Stewart, Ga but my contract ends here in a couple months. I put Henderson, NV as my location just so I can establish myself. 

I'm currently figuring out my plan now but am interested in investing into small family residential homes on the side of my profession. If I become successful at investing, then the table will turn and I will take investing as my main focus.
