New to the area and new to real estate - New Braunfels, TX

[Tom English]

Hello all...  My name is Tom and I recently retired from the military.  I am very interested and motivated to start my real estate investing business.  I am currently reading J Scott's books - Thank you J - and have been working my way through the Podcasts.  It is time to work for myself and control my own lifestyle and future after so many years of doing what I was "ordered" to do.  Very much looking forward to starting in networking and meeting people that I can learn from.  I am thinking I am mainly interested in flipping to start; but am interested in expanding into other things as I learn and grow in the business as others have done before me.  I have some savings but like many I am interested in breaking in as cheaply as possible and look forward to learning more on how to go about doing that.  I THINK I am pretty well located in a growing area right between Austin and San Antonio, TX.

Thanks and I look forward to learning from and networking with the Bigger Pockets community.

Regards,

Tom
