Las Vegas Real Estate Investing Newbie

[Cy Frederick]

Hello, 

First forum post! I am just beginning the process of real estate investing and live in the Las Vegas area.  I have narrowed my strategy down to buy and hold rental properties.  I am currently reading the The Book on Rental Property Investing and am trying to analyze 2-3 properties a day for practice.  Really just looking for connections of all types right now.  Would love some insight as to what is working for others in Las Vegas right now, as it is so expensive.  Thanks all!
