I would love to network with someone that has experience in this field of investing.

They don’t get much commission and it’s very difficult to build a report in the area without a network when your getting started .

Reaching out to seasoned investors in BP.Take advantage of all the free resources available here--the podcasts, blogs, and articles; and also network with more experienced real estate investors on BiggerPockets.Also, consider joining a local real estate investment club in your area to "rub elbows" with other real estate professionals and investors.Happy to help in any way I can.

EducationI want to surround myself in the real estate community, build relationships, get my real estate license, have access to MLS, network and market.

As Gareth said, learning how to run the numbers accurately is also of utmost importance, especially when it comes to marketing the property to your buyers -- they will not go for the deal if the spread is not wide enough.I wrote a few biggerpockets posts on how to run comps, estimate rehab costs, and find motivated sellers and off-market properties, they are all here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/8814-investing-with-rei-kitI feel that the most important information is how to run comps, as without that you are at the mercy of what the seller says their house is worth and have no baseline for where to start negotiations: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/8814/68395-how-to-find-real-estate-comps-and-calculate-after-repair-valueYou should start creating a buyers list right away, as getting a property under contract and running out of time to find a buyer is a real possibility.

First, it is a wide misconception that you cannot have two VA loans - and this is VERY wrong. 

The BP Plus or Pro level will give you way more general advertising, networking and search options to zero in on a micro level.

Second, network with other investors on here.

Perhaps I'd print marketing materials, send mailers, attend events, network, etc. 

I am always ready to meet up and network.
