I am a seven year navy veteran looking to get into real estate investing and I know I can’t do it alone. 

@Sherrod Wesley Check out Navy Federal Credit Union and USAA.

Of course you would be selling 100's of properties a minute and pulling in a large enough income to single-handedly pay off the entire US deficit afterwards, so you'd have paid off your (or your parent's) 2nd mortgage and be living in a mansion on one of your estates on the French Riviera and across the globe.

It has very much a New Orleans French Quarter look and is being remodeled to it's original style.

I was able to attend university, by traded 5-years of service in the Navy for my engineering studies. 

Hey Connor,I see you're Navy as well (I'm assuming you're an SNA like myself).

Go Navy.

We got started buy buying personal properties and than renting them out when we were transferred (husband active duty Navy).

Just like my bio says i'm currently getting out of the NAVY and am very interested in learning more about real estate investing and tricks of the trade to make my first goal of owning a multi-person home near a college campus a successful venture. 

You should also start listening to the podcasts (if you are not already) and surfing the forums for info on how other people pulled it off.As for me, I did both:  I have a career with the Navy and used that money, plus some borrowed from family, to start off flipping houses with my wife.
