Hi @Elizabeth Nourse  Thanks for the encouragement.  I'm currently reading Frank Galinellis book and am listening to podcasts every day.  Learning a lot and really excited about the journey.  Thanks for the offer!

@Jason Woodford thanks yeah it's been an amazing resource so far so much to learn!

@Richard Bailey That's great I work in PG county and really need to learn about the local scene.  I'll be in touch!

@Kim Coleman  @Jill DeWit thanks for the advice.  There's a lot of info here so I'm hoping to educate myself for a few weeks and then jump right in!

What a welcome!  Thanks for all the great info everyone.

@Dash Siva Thanks I'm learning a ton so far.

Hi everyone.  My name is Syed and I'm truly a newbie investor.  I currently live in Laurel, MD.  I work as an optometrist and have no experience in real estate beyond buying and living in a house.  I've always wanted to be a buy and hold investor but the usual self limiting beliefs have held me back (live in an expensive area, don't have a huge down payment, etc.)  

I joined Bigger Pockets a few days ago and have been reading articles non stop.  I'm really looking forward to my first (hopefully) successful deal!
