New to property investing

[Dan Hartman]

Hi BP, I joined a few years ago and haven't posted before. Current goal is to buy a rental property in the Ocean City, MD area. I'd like to rent it as much as possible and leave a few weeks during the year to stay there with family. 

Over time I'd like to purchase more properties in other beach areas where I might want to retire at some point. 

Thanks for providing all the information here.
