Hello, I am a new real estate investor and excited to begin networking with wholesalers and investors here on Bigger Pockets.  My only experience in real estate so far is the purchase of two single family houses I lived in as my personal residence.  I currently have a tenant in one of them that I am holding as a positive cashflowing investment property, and I sold the other when I moved at the beginning of this year.  I have enough cash on hand to provide a down payment of at least 20% for a property in the $300,000-$400,000 range.  I am searching for a 2-4 unit property (not in need of repair - fully tenant occupied), in a middle income neighborhood, in the North Georgia area (Buford/Cumming, Dawsonville).  I have a lot to learn about the process of lining up financing for an investment property, as my only experience with acquiring loans is through traditional mortgages for houses I lived in.

I am currently an active duty Army Officer and an AH-64D Pilot.  My profile says I am from Louisiana because that is where I am currently stationed, but I am interested in buying property in North Georgia or Florida.

Thank you for taking the time to read my introduction.
