Newbie in Omaha, NE area seeking advice

[Shannon Richardson]

Hello all,

My name is Shannon and I'm somewhat new to the world of real estate investing, and new to the Bigger Pockets website. I have been studying the field for several months and know that this is a route that I want to pursue further, particularly single family rentals. Since starting on this path I've read a handful of books, listened to BP podcasts, and have joined a local REIA. I am reaching out on here hoping to meet more of the great people in the REI community and find some assistance/advice in the Omaha, NE area. Namely I'm looking for referrals for companies that I could begin looking at to get a team started or any tips you might have regarding this, resources to find a good lead and hopefully my first deal, and simply general advice for a new investor getting into the game!
