@Mitchel Johnson Welcome to BP and I wish you the best in investing..Usually people start by going to local meetups and building a network of trusted people to get their feet wetHere is an examplehttps://www.meetup.com/find/?

Add this to smaller network and typically less knowledge for new RE investors.  

Quote from @Jonathan Weinberger: hey mate -- this sounds like a problem with your network and team.

I'd be happy to network.  

network with local agents to see where they took theres. but not much to it but go with who you feel comfortable with.

would love to help in anyway i can. go to networking events in your area. you can find them on many different apps. best of luck on your journey, keep learning then take action

You are far more likely to find a mentor through in-person networking and building relationships.

I know building a reliable local network will be key, so I'm hoping to connect with experienced real estate team in the area.The military presence in Jacksonville catches my eye, and I'm particularly interested in properties that might appeal to military personnel and the associated contractors.

Unless less you are a system-building guru and strong networker, if that's that case out of state investing should be more up your alley.
