I know seeking an attorney is default for most of you, but lets leave that out of any answers that you have.  

Good for you for seeking knowledge to find a better future!

I seek to learn more and become part of the community to expand my knowledge and network network network!

At this juncture it is probably best as the other Bob mentions to seek equity partners in some form to continue your dealings.  

The realtors that want to really work with investors and are motivated will seek you out.

If you are looking to purchase 2 properties make sure you can get financing for both before venturing into the first deal if you are seeking loans on both.I would suggest to keep your eyes open on a foreclosure or short sale if you are very handy and like to fix things up.  

Hope you find what you seek!

Seeking knowledge from anyone familiar with the area or have referral sources.  

Many people "jump" into the property management space seek an opportunity after the Great Financial Crisis of 2008.
