New member from Afghanistan

[Sung-Yong Kim]

hi, I'm currently serving overseas in Afghanistan as an logistical officer. My hometown is northern virginia and I am very new to real estate investing. My commander and others have told me I should look to invest what I earned from this deployment and look into real estate. Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you all for this awesome opportunity and I look forward to meeting some great people on this website!

@Sung-Yong Kim welcome to BP! I am also an Army officer and real estate investor. @Brandon Turner posted two of the best links you will ever find on this site. Read the Ultimate Beginnner's Guide and listen to ALL of the podcasts. Having been to AFG a few times myself, I know you have a lot of down time in the evenings. After work, the gym, and chow - head back to your CHU and listen to them. They are super informative and relaxing to listen to.

Have fun, stay safe, and good luck brother!
