Newbie investor with unique situation in Saint Louis/Dallas

[Cory Remekun]

Hey Bigger Pockets community! Stepping outside of my comfort zone here but thought hey why not! I am a newbie investor interested in the tricky but potentially rewarding Saint Louis market. 

I too am in a tricky situation myself. I am currently in Europe playing professional basketball so I am only in Saint Louis in the summers. No matter how many podcast listened to or books read I don't see a clear way to approach getting started! I don't have the typical job so this complicates many things. 

I'm also originally from the Dallas area and open to investing in that market as well. I am looking forward to networking and learning as much as I can from this community! Any advice and personal experience is greatly appreciated!
