New to Investing, Fayetteville GA

[Joshua Whitman]

Hello BiggerPockets!

I'm Josh Whitman. My wife and I live in Fayetteville, GA and are looking to buy our first home. I've thought for a while now that I would want to try my hand at real estate investing, and decided that this could be the perfect opportunity. I intend to find a distressed property in the area to fix and flip. I've been listening to the BiggerPockets podcasts for a while and think it's something my wife and I could do, as long as we don't bite off more than we can chew.

I plan to spend the next few weeks looking over the site's forums and articles, because at this point I simply don't know what questions I need to ask.

Thank you for your time!
