Hi all!  I'm stationed in South Carolina for another year and have long wanted to jump into real estate investing.  I've begun to read and am currently working my way through "What Every Real Estate Investor Needs to Know About Cash Flow...and 36 Other Key Financial Measures."  My plan is to finish that book and to then to begin analyzing deals.  I'm mostly looking for low/no cash down deals and will also be reading Brandon Turner's No Money Down book.  I'm an attorney and have worked evictions (from the tenant side).  That gives me a wee bit of extra confidence but I am also fairly risk averse.  After all, I am the lawyer son of an accountant.  I'm excited to be part of this forum!  I've been lurking for a while already so I know there is much to learn from all of you!
