Investing in REITs for portfolio income

[Julissa Perez]

Hey everyone, I'm still very new to BiggerPockets and the world of real estate investing, however, so far I've had a great experience reading the discussion forums and learning from a lot of you. I'm currently coming off of a deployment and getting ready to transition back into civilian life and I'm trying to make some wise decisions with my money. I already plan to use my VA home loan once I get settled and find a civilian job, but the idea of investing in real estate investment trusts has come up in my research and studying. I wanted to know if anyone has experience investing in these stocks, or if anyone has any advice to point me in the right direction.

Thank you,

Julissa
