I don't want to bite off more than we can chew with managing a full reno while we learn the ropes. 

Right now, I’m actively learning and planning to start my first projects this year.

You'll learn a lot here.I recommend focusing on 1 strategy/business model and going all in on that one until you've mastered it and it's stable.

There are any number of Real Estate schools available to you, so choose the one that compliments your learning style, whether that be online or in person or a hybrid. 

You've learned:1) The basics of landlording2) That it's not for youNow, how can you apply your landlording knowledge to "manage your manager"? 

I am not familiar with the area other then I work in the area on occasion and would like to learn more about investing in the Jacksonville area!

My goal is to learn as much as I possibly can and connect with experienced investors along the way.If there are any local meetups or networking events, I’d love to hear about them!

What is a goal you have as you start learning about RE investing?

If I learned anything it's that your project is as good as your GC.
